Walts_restoration, thank you.

I"ll have to keep a look out. I seen a camper special on Ebay, but my Googling hadn't turned up many longbed 1 tons, or atleast people talking about them, was getting a little concerned.

I wonder if the 4WD frames have the same hole pattern for the crossmember as the 2WD's.

Pretty sure you're right about the perches. The shocks on the 1 ton CC dually frame that I had, were mounted on the inside of the frame with brackets, a way beefier design than the 1/2 ton frames.

Planning on finding a later model 2500 8 lug rear with disc brakes, if theyre not too wide. The mounting for all of that wont be a concern, its all going to have to be fabbed.
