What’s up!

This is my first post in this forum and from what I can see every one is very helpful so here we go!
I Bought this van not to long ago after selling my truck
This thing is everything I ever wanted!! 4x4, lifted,Diesel and the best part about it is it’s perfect for camping trips and basically anything else I want to do. But my only problem is figuring out what I should do to this van first here are some things I’m looking into and if anyone has any good suggestions on how to get the van dialed in I would appreciate it
(No specific order)
1. Interior work including side panels and upholstery not to mention the center consul is pretty jacked up
2. Flooring I was thinking rhino lining The whole back half and putting carpet in the front
3. Bumpers!! Everybody loves them but no one can afford them any idea on how to make a cheap one or somebody that makes really good one that’s worth the money
5. Roof rack
6. Wench is it really worth it ?( I live in Southern California so Baja is definitely an option not to mention all the national parks nearby )
7. Shox I need shocks I’m pretty sure any recommendations would be appreciated In regards to coil over bypasses reservoirs all that good stuff

1. too many options to list. look around the site.. there are 'off the shelf' solutions you can buy, but they're expensive.
2. same, lots of options. most go with a plywood subfloor and then vinyl or carpet on top
3. i think the best 'affordable' bumpers are Move.. you buy a kit from them and weld them yourself: https://www.movebumpers.com/
5. Again, many options.. you can buy anything from some ATV ramps fro Harbor Freight up to an Aluminess full rack.. so say $300-2000.
6. Depends where you're going. I use mine, but never plan on it. You can get a good 12,000lb at Harbor Freight when they go on sale for $299 a couple times a year.
7. Not sure what 4x4 conversion you have, but call Agile Off Road in Santee. They have the best custom valved Fox shocks for our vans.
