Hi everyone new to this forum. I know on other car forums people refer to certain year models as 1st generation, 2nd generation, and so on. I tried the search to see if i could find info on what years fall under what generation. Could anyone lay it out for me? Sorry if this has been covered a millions times, but i couldnt find anything on it. thanks.

 

Not sure myself, but it seems the thing here is the MOD FACTOR!
I seen more talk about that then anything. The higher your level the more you can add to your threads or replies. For the most part it a Q&A and the fact that your truck is of any certain year is no factor.
Good Luck,

 

gen1: 1983-1988
gen2:1989-1992
gen3: 1993-1997
im not to sure on the rest though

Thanks for the info guys. Much appreciated!
