Pull a part on 33rd. I used to go there weekly and i worked on 9th west and 31st south for a few years.

 

pick n pull lol

 

Oh yeah. I moved to washington and theyre called pull a part here so i get it confused. When i was in high school there me and my buddies would go there every weekend we called it "the mall"

 

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

 

1 ton has a 14 bolt rear and a d60 front. The strongest available on a factory light pickup.

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.
just kidding dont get your panties all bunched up in between your V's hahah seriously though

 

actually what if someone has a wife and kids then a truck is to small

 

my old 3/4 ton dodge had a Dana60 front and Dana70 rear.

lmao touche eh?

 

but thats a dodge they rock lol

 

yes you're right lmao

my 1/2 ton has a 44front? lmao

i know chevy's had 8-lug 44's...and 8lug 60's though

 

then bolt some seatrs down in the bed and get a camper shell. call it a day and be done with it hhaha

 

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.
