Superbee,

A genII is not a GenI you have to remember that when the GenIs where out it was the beginning the GenIIs are the lost middle child of the Dak family. There are grill guards for our trucks but personally I want a safari style guard and I can't find one from a well known company, and I'm afraid to buy a no name on in fear it'll fall apart in a few months.

We have ONE suspension kit for 4X4s only. No 2X lifts. And from what I've heard you have to mod the frame to get it in. Don't the you guys have the whiplash 10" or something like that. And you guys can fit 33s stock.

Then who are you talking too? One of the biggest daks I've ever seen (in pics) is a GenI. And is your last comment stating that GenI and GenII suspensions are the same? I'm not challenging it if that's what you mean. I was just curious.

yeah the red RC genI with the brush gaurd, roll bars, and 33 in tires, thats walts, if you go to his webpage you will find he got a lift kit for a 91 and MADE it work, there is no suspension lift for our GENI, you can however make the genII lift work with some modification, he also has a 3in body lift, 1ton T-Bars and an add-a-leaf, so he cheated with the susp. lift, we have none for the genI

I just thought of something. I have only seen 1 GenII RC SB 4x4? I might start a new thread on it. What's up with that? Were the club cabs just that awesome back then?

i have the gen 2 and found a set of push bars from grizzly. I don't have composite lights so i don't need the brush gards. I've only ever seen one lift kit, and it was expensive. how big of a tire can i fit on my truck with the torsion bars maxed out?

I just put some black oval nerf bars I bought off e-bay onto my 95 ext cab. They would fit fine on a reg cab as well. Had "Ram offroad accessories" printed on the box. Below is their website. I didn't see anything listed, but I am telling you, they did fit. I had to drill my own holes in the frame, but that was not a big deal. they tucked up close to the body really nice. Hope this helps.
