Even if a person removed the fat lip (and the metal crush bar behind it), the bumper above the "lip" sticks out ~3" beyond the 96-98 bumper! The lip itself is an additional ~1.5". So the 96-98 bumper has a huge improvement in approach angle.

Thanks for the link and the image! Nice to get a refresh on what it looks like behind there. I wonder if you could bolt the 99-02' metal bumper sans crush cans to a 96-98'? I need one in my hands!
