    Sorry if this is misplaced, but...

    Does anyone know if any small shops (or members here) make Nerf Bars or "bumper stumps" that mount to existing bumper mount bolts?

    Who makes good lift blocks and U-Bolts to lift the rear about 2" for a good rake for the "Rod" look?

    Are NOS or repro grilles available? I am guessing not. Mine is a bit bent. It appears to have come from another truck and needs a fair bit of massaging to fit cleanly (I am guessing this is common).

    I've tried to search the forums on these topics but have not found anything.

    Thanks all!!

    Talk to dodge man on the nerf bars as far as the grill past a ad under a100 parts wanted section. my guess is i can find one in ohio but that would be a long shipment to calf,

    Not to step on anyone's toes but you can also check under "A-parts links" there is one titled Nerf Bars..

    Look around in your area for a shop that builds circle track race cars and show them what you want for your nerf bars. These guys use benders and notchers and welders every day and most of the stuff I have seen looks machine made. Totally professional. I have found that most of these shops have the most talented fabricators and are very fair on their prices. They are also usually very happy to help with custom projects.

    You should be able to find a 2" kit at any auto parts store for your rearend.

    I've got a used grill all boxed up to ship. It would need to be stripped and repainted but it is in good condition. Must be my parts listing timed out here.

    Talked to a body guy today who says my grille will work fine. he says he can get it looking fresh pretty easily. If that turns out to be wrong I will let you know. Thank you for the info!
