Re: Frame question

The 1 ton frames are entirely different in the rear. Leaf spring spacing is different along with the width of the frame, and you are correct the frame beams are taller. What wheel base is the 1 ton?

Re: Frame question

Lot of work to lengthen a frame only 6''. You'll then have to drill different mounting holes in the bed to the frame as they will be in a different place (width wise)
