I have been reading the forums for several months and I decided to join and ask a few questions.
First, has anyone removed the rear bumper and installed a "Pan" panel and a hidden receiver hitch? What supplier did you use? My rear bumper is bent and rusty, so this looked like a cleaner way to go.
Second, I need the bracket that mounts the headlight assembly to the sheetmetal on a 2000 Quad Dakota. My son hit a deer and busted a few things. I bought a set of headlights off e-bay but I can't find the mounting braket.
Last question, I know some of you have relaced the exhaust or replced just the muffler on the exhaust with some good reveiws. Has anyone bypassed the CAT? I know this is illegal, but I know someone has probably done it. Was there a improvement in performance or gas mileage? We do not have inspections here.

welcome to the forum! as far as the bumper situation, i am not sure of a manufaturer off hand, but the next time you are at the grocery store, or whever you go to get magazines, look through a "truckin" mag or something similar and you will find all kinds of rollpan bumpers for sale. or even easier, look on ebay or google. the headlight assembly bracket is something you are going to need to go to the dealer for, unless you can find it on ebay. bypassing the cat will give you a slight performance gain (high end), you would want to do other things like intake, programmer, ect. to get the full advantage of that modification.

 

go to the dealer?

check online first.

Try stuff like www.dodgeparts.com

A friend of mine runs one of the Subaru parts places and her online prices are lower than anywhere else for almost everything. Her prices are cheaper than the employee pricing.
