I have a DB, with the following mods. Front shelf mounteted inside grill on SS bolts as second cooking shelf. Downdraft installed, pizza oven attachment which is newish and in the learning phase but already turning out better pizzas than straight off the grate.

What useful other mods have you guys done?

Down Draft and a Handle mod.  Want to add a grill light and or another shelf.                                         

not sure if it qualifies as a mod but I removed the cart and turned it into a "built in"

Wanted a 2nd shelf in the Daniel Boone that was easy to take out.  So I did this modification.

Notice the perfectly straight cuts for the slits on the side, and the almost invisible beads on the welding to extend the 2nd shelf to the proper width.  That is some quality fabrication right there!

Traeger front shelf, GMG front shelf mounted inside grill as a removable second cooking shelf, Don Godkes stainless steel downdraft, GMG pizza oven, lid thermometer, removable pellet labels (currently M for Maple), upgraded 9dBi Omni WiFi Antenna...

Only thighs i did was a 3" elbow for a cheap downdraft.

I have the often bashed Traeger Jr. Elite. It's often bashed because I own it and it's my right to speak the truth. I look at it like a good marriage. If ya can argue and still keep the peace, you'll go a long way in yer relationship. So I got that outta the way.

My 1st overnight butt led to the addition of an extended pellet hopper. I suffered a flame out about 3 hrs in when I woke up and had to take the butt to the fridge. That led me to think an extended hopper would solve the issue. I figured the added weight alone would force the pellets into the auger tube.
NOPE! The 2nd attempt finished much like the 1st.  I don't know what it is that makes my pit tunnel out with frequency, but it does. I did get some UHMW tape as an experiment but haven't applied it because I don't have near enough and it's $$$.

Same thing for the front shelf. Got it but haven't attached it. If Bentley is a cheap screw, I'm the lazy nut.

I did make a 2nd shelf, but it's pretty much worthless as it invades too much of an already small area. It's too close to the top for most purposes, and interferes with food handling on the main grate (turning, flipping, etc.).

Not much you can do with a Jr. BUT... it's perfect for me. 

 

I put a shelf in front that was actually for my Traeger Junior.  I also made a second grill shelf using SS bolts.  I use this for everything except when I am grilling steaks or cooking pizza.

I also made a new front shelf from recycled bits of garden furniture that my pup had missed on his mission to eat my seats.

I recently purchased a used 2015 Jim Bowie WiFi and am starting to gather my parts now.  I have a Don Godke's Downdraft hood that will be delivered tomorrow, a GMG Front Shelf that will be here tomorrow and some FireBlack Nomex gasket to seal the lid that is also to be delivered tomorrow.  As you can see, I have some work to do this weekend.  I will post some pics once I get everything done.  I hope to purchase some GrillGrates in the next few weeks as well.

What mod is made to the Handle?

Likely the elbowed extension that makes it easier to open close when standing in front of the grill.

I have the pizza oven too, what do you have going on inside there?  I see what looks to be bricks sitting on top of your stone?  My interest is piqued

They are indeed stones. They are 'hot rocks',had a date night with the wife. Could never get the rocks hot enough for a nice sear on a steak in the oven, the GMG pizza oven does a great job of getting the rocks hot. [ Invalid Attachment ]

Removable second shelf that slide on the lower grates and easy to remove. Stove pipe elbow. $3 vs $50 for Godke's vent. Added a Corian front shelf.
