Id LOVE to have a 6 speed manual in my two CRD's. I know I could do it, but I think it would be a big headache.

2.5" is fine. No need to go bigger.

You ALWAYS want to check auto trans with the truck RUNNING and in NEUTRAL!

PM me your email address and Ill send you as many different pics of it that I have.

I was able to find a guy in Texas who had made a few rear bumpers who still had one mostly complete. I paid him to finish it for me. Cant wait to get it. The difference, Im getting two fuel can holder.

Guys, I have an '05 CRD. That bumper is for the post '05 KJ.

Sounds like some good choices.

Im in the Cle Elum area.

Iver got my KJ set up pretty well. I live in Cle Elum. Come on over some time.

It may be specific to my vehicle. On a number of road trips Ive gotten 39-41MPG. I got the lightest stock height tires I could find. Tire pressure high. I folded in my mirrors. I took a LONG time to get to 60 mph, and I stayed there for 740+ miles. That picture of my dash is real! 734...

ARB's arent perfect, but they are nice and who knows how long they will continue to support this aging platform. Might want to get one while you can. I didnt pick up a good aftermarket rear bumper when I could have and now you cant find any. SUPER lucky for me I did find someone who used to...

Well as long as he was covered. Thanks guys. I dont know the man, but I do know he was very helpful (much like Tom always is) on these sites and he seemed to know what he was doing! His truck certainly was proof of that. I wonder what he'll get into now?

Good Lord, do mean to tell me those axles, and bumpers went into some jerk off pocket who worked for the insurance agency???? I dont get it. After all that money, why wouldnt he have bought it back from the insurance agency?

Well what the hell am I missing? Parting that thing out would get him way more money than any crappy insurance buy out. Hell, Id buy that rear bumper from him for good money!
