Re: I’m full of questions.. do you have any answers?

1/2 ton and 3/4 ton frames are different. 3/4 ton frame is much narrower under the bed. That will affect rear bumper + brackets and bed cross bars. Any frame other than stock will require fab work for lots of other things. The snow ball. Chang 1 thing then you need to change 3 more. Front frame swaps or full frame swap then core support needs mod, then radiator won't fit, make front bumper mounts, cut up inner fenders... Stock frame with M2 kit is best option for most people if you don't want straight axle. Vintage air is great but the kit is made for stock size radiator in stock position, anything else you make it fit. The aftermarket aluminum radiators work great and bolt in, but if your engine is built for a lot more power and you add AC you may have cooling problems. Every change you make you need to thing ahead to see what else may need changed.
