aren't those 8lug 3/4ton axles...not much difference if any between one tons and 3/4's are there?
i thought the "one ton" trucks just had heavier springs and were USUALLY dually.

He has revolver shackles to gain that droop in the rear... i only mention it since someone asked what springs he's got to get that. It's no the springs, its the dual shackles.
+ and - to running revolvers. I would not of liked having revolvers on the ravine i was in last Sunday. You'd really have to skinny it into the bottom to not go butt over kettle. Tho he's got a runner so his 'rear' weight is in his favor running that setup vs a light rear end pickup where the axle IS the heaviest thing back there.
Can't wait till my build is done and i can post something hehe besides what i have already, just looks like any other SAS

3/4 ton usually has a 12 bolt rear and a d44 front or in ford's case, twin i beam (a form of ifs) which still had the same 8 lug pattern as the one ton axles
This goes for the older model full size trucks, nowadays many of the 3/4 ton pickups have IFS similar to that on a toyota.
1 tons are generally stronger than 3/4 tons.
You are correct about the springs. Factory 1 ton setups include more springs in the back and some form of overload springs. 3/4 ton factory leaf packs are smaller (softer, for a comfortable ride) and usually do not have overloads.

i dont think theres ever anything good to say about 3rd gen runners. except that you should just give it up and get a pick up or a tacoma.

i know that was a joke..
but i would never even joke about putting my kids in the back of the truck..unless it's sitting still in the driveway.
that's just dumb.
