Oil Filter Relocation
I relocated my oil filter to make oil changes easier (so I don't have to remove the skid plates). It also offered me the ability to run a double sized filter. It's tucked up behind the splash guard (removed for picts) and very well protected, but much easier to access.

Fumoto Oil Pan Valve
Makes oil changes much quicker, as I don't need to drop the skids. I just slip a tube over the nipple, remove the safety pin, and open the valve.
Battery
I swapped an Optima Yellow-Top deep cycle battery for the stock Toyota battery. This will come into play later when I install a dual battery set-up.
Exhaust
I installed a Magnaflow cat-back exhaust. It looks and sounds great, plus turns the exhaust to the side so I don't scrape it as much off-road, and fumes don't come in the back window if I roll it down while driving.
