Just bought a 1999 Dodge Durango SLT, 4x4, 5.9L yesterday. Getting rid of my 2007 Chevy silverado due to financial reasons, and the Durango fit my budget of lower payments (yes, I understand I will be spending a bit more in fuel..lol)

Anyway, seems to be in good shape, freshly rebuilt tranny with warranty, engine seems strong, even though it sounds like a lifter or valve tapping a bit, especially on startup. I'm thinking probably just needs adjusting?

Truck has 91,000 miles, which is LOW for a 1999.

Here are things that it needs.

*Radio (Factory would be ok if it has a CD player, I would love to use the steering wheel mounted controls)
*Front fender flare
*Possibly front fender if the dent cannot be removed
*shocks, and rubber 'stops' (not sure what to call them) on the front suspension.
*center cap for one of the wheels.

Oh.. and how can I upgrade the headlights to be brighter? They suck!

Here's some pictures of my ride
