I plan on baggin mine it is a 99, I don't know if it is the same. On mine it is going to require some major surgery in the front to get it to lay out. The crossmember hangs about 5.75" lower than anything else so it's going to take some frame work to get it down. The back will depend a lot on how much you are willing to give up and how low you want to go.

I jsut want to be able to put it all the way down when I park and raise it up to drive off. I really dont know much about this stuff but I do know what I want. What do you think a ball park price would be on a good set up? either bags or springs??

I don't know how the front suspension is on the 02-05 but I do now they don't make much if anything to bag them. It pretty much has to be custom built.'


I think.
