Re: Cube van too 1/2 suspension interchangeablity

Im not sure that the van hangers will fit the truck. But you should measure the distance between the spring perches on both axles. On pickups the perches are norrower on one tons than 1/2 and 3/4 tons. The van could be one or the other or niether. Also check the width of the axle over all. From wheel mounting surface to wheel mounting surface it should be 72". If its less, the wheels will sit that much further in the wheel wells. So if its 70" the will be sucked in 1" on each side. They could also rub the inside of the inner fenders if too narrow. Don't forget you'll need to find a combination U joint!
