    im getting ready to change my front end, but i have a question about all the bumper brackets. i know there are two front brackets for the front support, but what about the side brackets that support the fenders, bumper, and valance. im not to sure if you can use the 2wd side brackets. Do i have to get the 4wd side brackets and will it fit to the truck or is there a difference. Can anyone give me any advice! i just don't want anything loose or rattling.

    Thanks

    The 2wd side brackets will not work, since the 4wd bumper is wider, they don't reach. I'm not using them. The bumper does shake a tiny bit on the sides but nothin serious.

    I made the ones on mine work. But i had to keep readjusting them. Get the ones from a 4x4/4Runner
