You're building a custom frame and you're worrying about ABS? Are you building or are you having it built?

building it with the help of some of my minitruck friends that have done alot of custom frames
9inches are so expensive im in chevy country here so a 12 bolt or somethin would be a better route i think

I wouldn't do it, because half way thru this project (assuming you did it), your truck is going to be in 500 pieces, and your going to come up with another idea, like dropping in a turbo Vtec.
