Re: 1969 C50 crew cab build
1ton down is setup for 2.75" wide stock leafs . aftermarket like lift kits go 2.5" you cant cut in the the housing for 3" wide unless you do a home brew u-bolt conversion as you will loose the 2 bolt holes for the spring plate .
the width for a dana 60 front is 32" center to center . the 1ton rear for a 14ff is 40.5" center to center and 2.5" wide springs . the rear can be worked around a bit but the front has the pass side spring mount cast in to the diff housing . todays axles i would tend to start looking at ford f-450 and f-550 super duty stuff . there a lot bigger and bigger parts and also factory 19.5 rim size .

Re: 1969 C50 crew cab build
Thanks for the info. I’m looking at the K50 rtech build and he said he just put the 1 Tom axles in. I know there are bigger axles but I’m just wondering if it’s as easy as sliding in the 1 ton axles and bolting them to the leaf springs.

Re: 1969 C50 crew cab build
Hello all. Life got in the way and the build is for sale. It pains me to let it go, but I have no choice. Frame as shown in pics, 1997 cummins 12 valve w/125,000 miles, 2012 G56 6-speed transmission that was rebuilt 10,000 miles ago, mint front clip from C50, and various other parts. No cabs, beds, front or rear ends included. Take it all for $10k. I have way more than that in it. 636-432-9509

Man, wish I was in the position to take her off your hands and finish things out.
