From the looks it appears the Gmt 800 rear bar would fit my Gmt900 .

I am not sure how the frames differ in the rear if at all.

I know the shock brackets are angled on the GMT900's but I don't think that would affect how it mounts or moves.

Not sure on the fronts either.

Nnbs front sway bars mount behind and links are on the back side of the control arms, whereas the gmt800 mount in front and links are on front side of lower control arm....suv rear sway bars gmt800/900 are damn near identical...

Well these would be a full TVS kit of front and rear bars for GMT800 Trucks.

I see they only have SUV kits for the GMT900 series.
