It sure would be nice to have that stuff on our trucks. I'm disappointed.

Para, how about the Extreme version? Lot's of battery power.

There's also Severe Mobility Package, but I really couldn't find anything on that.

Aww, crap. That sucks about the wheels. Is the bolt pattern different? (I'm just thinking if it is just the size, that shouldn't be a huge problem.)
I am sorry to ask questions, but how does a hydraulic bump stop work? Ours are just little rubber cone-like things, aren't they?

If you want beadlocks, take a look at the Center Line ones or get some Staun internals.

I understand, now. Sorry about being thick-headed. I am still learning! I was looking at the Staun internal beadlocks a few weeks ago and think that is the best way to go. I was just looking at these GM ones when they were posted because I prefer going the factory route, if possible.

That makes sense. I think I saw those in the thread with the desert racing H3, in the picture with the engine exposed.
Thanks again for the help.

It'd be real nice if they were available in a 6x5.5 bolt pattern! Then it'd fit the H3

Good point, Phil. They really should decide what's best for wheeling these mall rigs.
