    You can run a longer shackle, but you also need a shackle flip kit. The only downside is if you are still under factory warranty

    Now that I haz moneys coming in weekly... Its time to fix up mah taco again.

    Wanna buy a plate front bumper but I swear 99% of em are too bulky for the small regular cab wheelbase and look.

    So far the only ones I like are pelfrey or.CBI.

    Why can't more people make sleep bumpers that aren't so blah? :pout:

    Yeah, there is this one company, DWF, and they have no taste what so ever. Go with CBI. Looks awesome in person and would fit a reg cab well.

    I'll be rocking pelfreys hybrid soon enough. The plate looks awesome with just the center hoop. Full hoops is just to much for a reg cab.

    Lol Its just frustrating cause all I need is the pieces cut since that's the one thing I can't do :frusty:
    I think the CBI kit is only $500 so probably gonna do that.

    Why don't you just plate your existing bumper? You got a solid base to work from.
