differences in 3/4-1/2 ton frames???

I am wanting to get my 1/2 ton longbed able to haul my trailer, and i am wondering what i would have to change to make it a 3/4 ton? It is already 4.5/ 6 inch drop and will soon be bagged. can i use my drop spindles with 3/4 hubs on the front? Do i just need to add some strength (box frame and add some bars) to the frame to be able to haul? what about the rear would it be easiest to try to find the right year rearend and bolt it up or try to make a new style fit? any advice would be great
