Prolly not, and you don't really want that anyway. If you ever get into an accident, that thing would fold right up into your radiator and engine

I guess, but the body style changed from 96 to 97. I'm sure if you go to look at it, the seller won't mind if ya size it up first.

The push bars do look good. Saw this one here on CF that looks just like the one your interested in. Heres a pic of it - also link to the thread it came from - just scroll down the thread till you see the pic... mabye you could pm the owner and see if he can give you specs etc.

it'll fit. I used to have one on my 99 that came from my buddy's 91. All it's really good for is mounting lights and keeping some crap out of the grill. Other than that, it's all looks. I'm not saying it's bad, I liked mine, but I sold it so I could build my winch bumper and get some real strength and protection up front.
