I may even replace the rear spring hanger because I am using 6" lift springs in the front and if I don't replace that hanger, I will need a 10" block. LOL I think the biggest difference in the frames, is the 1/2 frame rail heighth is shorter than the 3/4. But I am not 100% on that.

actually, the 1/2 ton & 3/4 ton frame heights are the same, as well as some 1 tons. the rails are indeed taller on 1 tons that were designated for dumps, box trucks, ambulances & military cucv's.
