Not me!

I don't ever recall me stating it would ever be made for trucks. Real trucks would never have active suspensions.

I know, but I thought in the interest of science and everyone here, you might develop one out of "spare" parts in the lab

(On second thought, as you work for a commercial company, there might not be any such thing as "spare" parts. We do all government work, there is always "spare" parts.

plus the 01.5 had the vacuum disconnect for the 4wd as the 02's dont have it. I wish I could put on some locking hubs for the 02. I know they make em for the 01.5's and earlier.

Not really - apparently yours isn't a 01.5 - the rear disc brakes were introduced mid-year 2001.

Not all 2002's, just the later builds, hence the 2002.5 in my sig, no CAD.

My 2002 has the CAD and grab handle. That's it. No wheel wells, hood liner, rear cup holders, or Mach 4s!

Ditto!...on my Sept, 01 build date.
Did not realize, till now, I was lucky to get the grab handle! Too many complaints from out of shape passengers on vehicle height as it is now. They only complain once......usually not invited back!

I won't read this one to my dogs....I'll never hear the end of it. "We want rear cup holders! We want...........!"
