Re: Heavier Suspension Conversion?

Since you have a Big 10, that means you have 3/4 ton springs already. An 8 lug 14 bolt rear will bolt right in to give you a true 3/4 ton or you can step up to 1 ton spring packs that will bolt right in for a 1 ton rating.

In front, you can swap rotors and spindles to get 8 lugs. I forget if the front calipers are different or not. You could also put 1 ton springs in the front if you want as well.

With all this, you will basically have a single rear wheel 1 ton truck.
