Yeah, I know. I started my build with the same thought. After a year or two, I gave/sold/threw away stuff. There are a few small items here and there in my garage though. You may buy a second later, may be a 200 or 550...

Exactly. I’m reading this thread and scratching my head. Let’s see a show of hands who did a full build and went back to stock. Like wtf?If you go with full armor; front, rear, top, and down; you will not go back to stock. My 2 cents.
Thanks. Your comment is not productive.Exactly. I’m reading this thread and scratching my head. Let’s see a show of hands who did a full build and went back to stock. Like wtf?
Let me ask you this. What is the point of going back to stock? Why is that even a thought?Thanks. Your comment is not productive.
My LC100 is a 2005, one owner (I’m the second), with 70K miles, all maintenance records, and has never lived in the rust belt. Needless to say, it is a near time capsule. Not perfect, but close. I want to build it out in the least invasive fashion so down the road (5-10 years) I can return it to its stock self. I may do this simply because I want to go back to the look of a stock 100 (which I really like) or because it will be easier to sell, if necessary. Modified 100s are not as strong in the market as a stock 100s. My plans may change but I want the option.Let me ask you this. What is the point of going back to stock? Why is that even a thought?
Going back to the purpose of the thread - I am currently looking at the TJM T13 Outback front bumper, either a Dissent V3 or ARB rear bumper, Gamiviti+++ roof rack, Slee sliders, and Dissent skids. I don’t think any of these mods would require cutting/grinding. Someone said this earlier and I agree, the TJM/ARB combo provides more of an OG look particularly with the sliders and roof rack (everything tubular). The issue I see is the ARB rear is not as functional as the Dissent.My LC100 is a 2005, one owner (I’m the second), with 70K miles, all maintenance records, and has never lived in the rust belt.

I can verify this as have these on my rig.I really want to say that the White Knuckle sliders are straight bolt on with no drilling. I do not own them but they seem to be popular with serious enthusiasts. Good luck finding all the products you want. God bless America!

I have not move forward yet. Will likely go with a TJM T13, Slee rear, Slee sliders, Dissent skids, and Gamiviti roof rack.Did you go with a Victory front bumper?
I'm considering one of these. Have any pics or thoughts/impressions of the bumper and install? How was it to work with Victory?
Little different for me. The lead engineer on these bumpers is a friend, so I actually have 1 of 2 prototypes made.Did you go with a Victory front bumper?

Thanks. I spoke with Dissent and their front bumpers require cutting and removal of the crash bar. This would make it impossible to return the truck to its stock condition down the road.
You may be correct. I think you have to grind the frame horns. This is similar to what needs to be done for the installation of a Dissent bumper. I may need to accept that grinding is necessary. Dissent has great products. I’m just not to the point of performing surgery, yet.
This is true, at least for the ARB. The subframe bolts right up and then the bumper attaches to it.My understanding is pre-2003 100s did require some additional trimming/grinding for bumpers.
