My guess is '02. If I remember, in '03 they went to rear disc brakes.

thanks for the replys but i think i got it figured out. looks like it is an 03. went to the parts store today and 2002 had 11" front rotors and 12" o.d. drums 2003 has 12" rotors and 13" drums which is what this frame has.now the lower a arms have the same part# so i will have to e-mail djm and try and find out why there lower a-arms won't fit an 03 but they say they will fit an 02. thanks again
