I would also say that larger brakes could be added to the list. Helps with towing and compensate for the larger tires (and maybe wheels).

I actually put a smaller fuel tank in mine. When I converted to a shortbed, I had to use a shortbed tank.

Or this:



The top half is a tool box, the bottom half a 60 gallon fuel tank. That will get you some range.

I am also going to run pork chop boxes to give me some extra storage over the wheel wells in what is normally dead space.
