welp heres the deal, you crawl under the front end, and see if u have any little holes in the cross member, you u do, itll fit. that plastic air dam comes off and the skid plate goes in its place. these skid plates are all transferrable. heres the run down -

my fdront - 2001
mid - 1998
rear -2001

and i have a 2004. they havent changed the frame railes, and basic set up, so it should work for all years

Unless you just want something for looks and to be shiny on your truck, I wouldn't suggest dropping the cash for an OE skidplate.

if you go OEM get the carbon steel one
the stainless model listed in this auction is much too thin to provide any real protection
one or two impacts and it becomes more of a scoop than protective armor

well i got one, and it works for me. tho im not heavy into the offroading stuff, just mud puddles, and what not... if more than anything, it keeps ur engine clean and dry and sticks and brush from tangling around the goodies in the front end

pics of my front skid plate can be found in this post.
