Default 4x4 emblem/badge?

Is there a 4x4 badge that appropriately matches the size and font of the lettering on the GMT900 trucks? I don't like the huge stickers on the quarters and would like to remove them, but I would like to maintain the identification that it is equipped with four-wheel-drive. I would like to maybe replace the LT badge on the tailgate with a 4x4 badge, or maybe adjust it to LT 4x4. I think it would look much cleaner this way, but the only GMT900 4x4 badges I've found are the Tahoe Z71 badges, but my truck is not a Z71. Has anybody seen anything that looks as though it would work well? I have investigated custom badges a bit as well but have not yet found something suitable.

Nice find. I'd like to know how well they match up with the factory stuff.

That's funny, I feel the exact opposite. My truck is a Z71 but I like the 4x4 decals much better.

Oh I don't like the Z71 decals either; the Tahoes have a Z71 badge that would look good for what I want if I had a Z71. I prefer badges to stickers. I'm going to get a quote from these guys for a custom 4x4 badge to match the other emblems (and I'd really like to put a couple of the 376 badges on my hood as well)

Emblem might be a less confusing word. I just would like to remove the decals/stickers in favor of an emblem/badge that will flow smoother with the rest of the factory identification.

Yup the RAM 1500 one is too tall by 5/8", however, the one for the Nitro seems perfect:
