Re: 1 ton axles- can I make these work

I think it should be pointed out with 1 ton axle
swap project, the snow ball factor is big.

1) 1 ton axles means 8 lug, which means new rims and tires.
2) corp 14 has the disc upgrade ( new proportioning valve)
3) new u-joints and probably driveshaft lengths.(different size yokes)
4) if its not lifted now is the time, depending on the size of tire you want.
5) need access to a welder for the pinion angle on the rear.(to do it right)
6) extended brake lines

the srw hubs to convert the chevy dana 60s are expensive...price them out first

(I would reccomend shaving the corp 14, while you have it removed also)

Just trying to save you some aggrevation if it hasn't been thought about yet.
