ha yea thats what i would really like to get, a front bumper with 2 hooks for d shackles, and then for the rear just a hitch with one of those d shackle receivers. after all that then half doors, it sucks for me tho cause i have no welding skills so everything cost more for me

FYI 5-speed trans mount have a 1" drop built in. they bolt up using the same stock bolts and no loss of ground clearance. i would save my money and get one out of the JY.

I never do this, but it was hard to read your post. Try using commas and periods.

I don't have any problems with a bind, but I still have an issue with vibes at 45mph. I've got a 3" lift and 31"s. I'm prolly just going to invest the necessary $$$ in a SYE. It's not horrible, and my 4x4 engages fine, but I'm going to go ahead with the SYE to prevent future problems.
