hikerrich, I don't ever want to use it, but it makes a nice parking lot assault device :-).

This kinda sucks because I was looking to try to put a Bull Bar on my truck.

It'll work on my 2WD but I can't see paying the 300 bucks.

4X4 valence

I found the valence on ebay $40 I think. The color wasn't exact but it still looks fine imo. Had to drill for the hooks though, no holes. Also the rubber air dam holes were different & I had to adapt. Did the 4X4 grill too.

Geeky,
I believe your the one that bought my valence from my new '00 (then) 4x4, looks good on your truck!! I did the same w/ my '99 2wd as far as mounting the tow hooks.

Guys, I like the WAAG guard, have to check that out!!

Ahh, now I remember.... Doc. It all comes back to me now. I tried to get the "Police Interceptor" thing going and get "pozer" plates but never took it to the extreme. And never found a push bar that I could handle. The bull bar was close but too bulky imo. Sticks out too far or something and I did want it to be anchored better too.
