RE: 1 ton axle swaps help
Your question really wasn't that specific.
What axles are you swapping in?There are quite a few different combinations used in 1 ton applications. Are you looking 70 rear / 60 front, 14 b rear / 60 front, 60's F/R ? Beyond that are you planning on running the stock link setup design in the front and leaves in the rear?
It boils down to this, you have to find the front and rear axles you want, gear them to match, get the suspension / steering setup (which might require custom fabrication), get the brakes setup,and then find yokes to mate to your current driveshafts, or conversion U-joints, or get new driveshafts with the correct size joint on them.
What portion specifically were you asking for help on?
