new to TDR, new to diesel, etc

the truck is a 2001 SLT laramie, qc 2500, 4x4, 5 sp, 241 HD transfer, 3:55 dana 60/80 with 234k

q1 lets start off easy - how to fix the back seat latch? pass side works, drivers side dosen't - what a pain.

q2 anyone running the Bd power short throw shifter? thinking of getting one.

q3 hot hodding? truck has 4" banks exhaust, egt gauge pre turbo, fuel guage (reads steady 8 psi), Fass pump 95-1002 (without filters), MAD ecu, heavy duty clutch, K&N drop in filter, Amsoil for all fluids.

Specks in the MAD ecu? I know it soots when you put out foot in it.
thinking on a curved aftermarket intake? Will I feel a difference?, money well spent?
boost gauge needed? 0-30 or 0-60?


my use is for pulling a 7k trailer once in a while - local, snow plowing (my own driveway) truck came with a blizzard mount, 95% driving empy...mileage/longevety is a concern. But need it to be fun to drive, I've always increased hp with every car & truck, 30+ years of driving mopars. my other rides 85 318 gas pig pu 4x4 plow truck, 70 340 4 sp dart, 02 neon r/t (not stock) & 97 intrepid 3.5L

thanks in advance for help & comments
