Any thoughts on brake upgrades: know a good rotor manufacturer for up front? And is it possible to grab rear discs from an explorer (if such an option existed) to put in the back?

Would these fit on the truck stock with no lifts (2wd, reg cab, short bed) or where would I find out?

They will. Bolt pattern should be the same all around. You may just need wheel spacers if you want to run 12.50 tires.

Okay, few more questions:

For what years are bed covers compatible? Is the bed of the 93-97 the same as the 98+?

Do 98+ tail lights and/or tailgates fit on a 97?

Where would I be able to look this stuff up, or is it just learned over the years?




In this picture the truck (a 97 like mine) looks much taller, and overall more taught. I think it's from taller tires, fender flairs, thicker plastic on the front bumper, mud flaps, and the front valence lights but I can't put my finger on it; do y'all know why it looks so much more attractive? Is it a picture of a 4x4 that just sits taller? Is there a lift on it?

The tonneau covers are only different when it comes to stepsides as far as I know. Just measure your bed before you buy one. Same with tailgates. They'll fit no prob unless off of a stepside. Taillights will fit, but you will have to mod them into the 3 bulb pattern that I know some years had, or just run without amber turn signals.
