Yeah the bumper has a weird sag in it for some reason. Moss724, the grille is great. I am really happy with it. Install took maybe 10 minutes after I took the grille surround off the truck.

 

Right, and the plastic on top of bumper isn't snapped in right or something. That part looks bent up.

 

Maybe the brackets bent ? I know it took two floor jacks to adjust mine correctly.

 

yeah, i used a hydraulic table to mount my Ranchhand

 

- Yea, I don't know what was worse, lining up the hood or the bumper. If you ever remove the hood, make sure you mark it first lol.

 

Where did u get that grille? that looks sick!

 

Looks pretty good, what kind of paint and prep work did you have to do to get the valance painted?

 

BigTruckGuy-I got the grille from myhotf150.com. I think I got it on sale for $129 or somewhere around there.

4x4wolf-I used Krylon Fusion gloss black for plastics. No primer needed. I just took it to the car wash to clean it then wiped it down with paint thinner to get it extra clean. I applied 4 coats of paint an hour apart. It has been painted since early August and has not chipped, cracked or faded once.

 

looks real good, do they have a 97-98 grille? what tires are those? TSL's?

 

Yep, they have them for the '97-'98, the tires are SSR's.

 

Makes me want my white truck back.

 

looks good man

 

why did you paint your valence black instead of white tho??

 

I though about it but I have black accents like black emblems, a black exhaust tip, the black grille, black headlights, black tails. Just didn't think a white bumper would go with the flow ya know.

 

ahh understandable. i gotcha. truck looks damn good none the less
