    01 body lift questions!

    LED Bar In Bumper Air Scoop

    Yep, I cut out the grill dividers where I needed to, Check out my profile page, I think there are a few better pics, I also got the front lights and cut them into the bumper and wired them to the bar. A curved one would be bad ass but mine was a gift

    My 97 build

    Hey Beaver, Welcome to come to the forum. I'm doing the same type of build as your starting. You can get 35" tires with just torsion keys and spacers. I stuffed 37's with a little trimming. Good luck with your build, I'm just down in Portland if you ever want to go wheeling.
