    Just as a point of reference - you can bypass the shifter lock manually in this situation. On your shifter cover, there's a little square plate above the "P" on the gear indicator. Pop that plate up and press the button inside down with a screwdriver. While the button is pressed you can get the shifter out of park and into gear.

    maybe the middle lugs are stickign out more than the side lugs, causing it to rub more with a wider stace
    maybe try airing them down a little?

    Mine was disabled like that not long ago from a blown fuse, I grounded a wire for my MTS by mistake and it blew an ABS related fuse. Truck is looking great, sometimes it takes me a minute to realize it's you driving by because I'm not used to the new one and by the time I realize you waving I'm already past you.

    Caster is the angle that the shock is forward and back. So chopper or shopping cart if that makes sense.

    Free floor mats are awesome!! :D


    Also check fitted my new CB antenna mount from BAMF. I think it fits great. Hope I can get my SWR right at this spot. May have trouble as I am always putting stuff on and off if my rack. When I do a front bumper again I will run the antenna there. Need to paint it and run my coax cable.

    Have you thought about using the stock antenna location?

    Mats look great, like the antenna bracket just like you mentioned same setup and location as the one I had on the 80. I was always breaking the antenna's on the front bumper and that location worked out much better :thumbsup:
