    The bombproof mounts are the same on both sides. Maybe that'll be alright for this.

    For 1st gens, the isolators are the same on both sides.

    It looks like the TG mounts replace the isolators, so maybe they could work if they provide enough adjustment.

    That ABS light is most likely a wheel bearing thats gone bad. Ive had it happen to me and a couple of others that I know. The bearing goes bad and the magnetic strip on the bearing stops spinning and the the ABS gets no signal and gives you the ABS and brakle light at the same time.

    Extra inch of travel? Just regear, the truck will be much happier. And skip 35’s and go straight to 37’s

    I don’t see why not. Might need to delete the core support/ inner fender and trim fenders. But I don’t see why they wouldn’t fit.

    More cut lolz. Im not thinking they will tho but not 100. May have to look more into this. Good idea if i could. Turbo, gearing, and drivetrain would push them easy.

    Good to hear man appreciate that. Just the usual lower pinch weld to cut out?

    Yeah, Utah is sorely lacking in the LT builds as well. We have a few floating around, but just a handful. Most of the cool ones aren't dailies, but numbered race trucks for BOR/SNORE/SCORE races around here.
