Hello again;

Just trying to learn. When talking about the 2nd generation (95- 01). Does that mean most parts are interchangeable. Are the frames exactly the same? Or what would be the differences?

Maybe a big question but would help when looking at used parts.

Thanks

Nice, like the white. The lower trim on the tail gate and around the corners, is that stock? Or did you add it. Like the looks of it. Would it be hard to add.
