Welcome to the forum!

99-01 is what you really need although others would bolt up, they'd look funny because they have a place for a license plate. You don't need to cut the frame rail either. Just unbolting the brackets would be tons easier. Four bolts.

Thanks for the reply and info - the reason to cut the frame is I see some bending on mine - that way I will have them If needed besides sawzall is easy and fun : I will be using it at the yard this trip already- need some axle ends for some rear ends I'm getting narrowed
