Somebody suggested I find an entire set of 3/4 ton axles and springs and just "bolt them in." Ha - nothing is ever that simple //wink
I mean, it should be that easy, the springs are the same length, and the front axle is the same up to the knuckles. you'd need a rear driveshaft, and a maybe a master cylinder. the real hard part would be getting the brake lines apart without breaking anything.
