The bumpers are different between 96-98 and 99-02 so it may go on fine but will look goofy with the extra space. Heres a picture of my stock bumper on my 01. As you can see it sticks out more that a 96-98
Yeah I know the bumpers arw different. This is a center guard so its not the entire brush guard. Just wondering if it would bolt up the same since it stated it was 99-2002
It will bolt up and stay just fine but since you do not have a "fat lip" bumper and the grill guard was made for a 4r that does, you will have extra space between the guard and the bumper that in my opinion will look goofy
