Default Inexpensive Upgrade Questions.....

Ok, I've been reading a bit on the builds in here and some other places. Does anyone have any ideas if these work or of any other cheap upgrades...

1) Swapping out the stock steering box with a Dodge Durango Steering Box
2) Using WJ front brakes & calipers instead of buying new upgrades. (I am running my stock D30 in the front)

Are these swaps straight boltin's? It seems like these are good upgrades and if I can pick them up at a junk yard I know I could save big $$$$'s.

One thought is that if I was to upgrade the brakes to WJ calipers & disks I may need to get new rims since I am running 15" now.....

If anyone has other affordable upgrades I'd love to hear.

Thanks.
