Its really hard to believe the difference.......doesnt even look like the same truck huh?.......It took myself and two friends 5 attempts to attach the front dam before it was correctly installed.<IMG src=smileys/smiley7.gif border="0"> And there was no written instructions . All the instructions wereschematics withnumbers andarrows.Some of itwas difficult to identify because of that.<IMG src=smileys/smiley5.gif border="0"> (which is why it took the front dam 5 times)And even some bolts were mis-identified. I had to put together the partsI could follow and understand first, and then stumble through the rest.It wasnt untill that point whenI understood that all of the parts were there, its just that what the schematic shows is not the correct part(because it seemed to fit anyways)<IMG src=smileys/smiley9.gif border="0">The front and rear dams were most difficultto understand. Of course the truckwas on the garage floor not on jacks which I strongly recommend.<IMG src=smileys/smiley14.gif border="0">It also reminded me of something else....I need to lose some weight.....<IMG src=smileys/smiley6.gif border="0">This is why I like this forum so much...It allows all to trade information that could be valuable to someone sooner or later.....<IMG src=smileys/smiley17.gif border="0">And im just doing my part here....Well Im hoping thatthis Infocould be usefull to someone considering the task and maybe dodge could look into it. It is entirely too much money to pay to have to find your way throughit like I did. It should be easy to read andto follow........And while im not a ASE mechanic I do have some mechanical skills.....or ? ID suggest to have a dealer install it. It may be worth the trouble....Of course it could have been their plan all along....hehehe . just kidding, just kidding. Thanks again to all for their help!!!

<FONT size=2>I purchased the kit from a (dodge Dealer) only option: for about $1690.00 (not installed)it is called aThunder Roads Package front Dam. The Dam can be purchased seperately between $250.00-$450.00 depending how far you look.I found a dealer in washington that had the entire kit for a few hundred less. However adding S&amp;H killed the deal. And the boards are pretty heavy. Make sure you read all of the previous posts . type vehicle, etc.. a lot of people helped out tremendously in accomplishing this task........and there should be enough info. to answer any questions. If you need any further ? let me know!</FONT></P>
