What are you looking to do?

If you want to stiffen up the rear of your truck you can add air bags into the rear springs

Here is an example of an Axiom owner:

If you are looking to bag the whole truck so you can drop it and raise, it your talking about 2k in custom fab front end.

It is possible, but not cost effective.

Something different? Do what I did.

I love seeing other Rodeo's, specially the 1st generations, (partial to them, I know), but, when I first got my 97 Rodeo, every other one was Burgundy, with steel 16" wheels, black "Isuzu" spare tire cover, with standard luggage rack.

How little often you see them now, it was a very popular color for the Rodeo's 5-7yrs ago.

Within a few years I had put on a pushbar, fog-lights, aero shield, class-3 hitch, after market mud flaps (didn't care for the dealerships straight black "fancy" flaps), bigger tires, and the tire cover was replaced with an off-white cover with a Bald Eagle flying over a tree.

Granted this type of look may not be for everyone, but it's "different", and I stopped walking to other Rodeo's thinking that it was mine.

Since we travel a LOT, do moderate 4x4 trails, camping, fishing, etc. and also pull a boat, changing the suspension up or down wasn't a good thing - though I've always wanted to lift it.

Dance it up, get away from the same "looks" as all the other vehicles, that goes for every newer vehicle on the street - they all look the same. No one really adds their "flavor" anymore.

They all have the "fancy" factory mud flaps, factory running boards, factory driving lights, gets boring, it really does. As every single make and model, aside from frame differences, look identical in boring fashion.

I hear ya.

well i've already added a westin sportsman series black one piece grille guard. that was included in the cost of selling my 22 inch rims to a body shop, he paid me cash and then got me that grille guard. (found out that the cost of 22" tires were about the same as the damn rims, they doubled the cost!!) i tinted my windows to match the factory tint (20% is like an exact match) and had the tint guy put a 3 or 3 1/2 inch glare strip on the windshield. i'm plannin on buying some 20" chrome rims this summer since i can actually afford them, but sometime in the future i wanna bag the truck. custom fabrication is not a problem, i love working with metal, and i think i found a place that sells universal air bag mounts for the front and rear, i was just wondering if anybody actually sells a system for that truck. thanks for the replies, keep 'em comin.

P.S. i would lift the truck a 'lil if i would use it, but i never go offroad in that truck the paint is too damn nice and there are lots of dead trees on the main 4 wheelin "track." its not that i dont like the look of lifted trucks, i just want mine compleeeeeeeetely different.

Yeah, I'm partial to my paint as well. Not too bad for 8yrs old with all the trails we've been on; I do have 2 really good scratches but they're low on the truck.

I'm anal about waxing it at least 3 times a year; thank it's helped for the most part.
