Converting 3/4 ton to 1/2 ton?

[70rs/ss]

If you just want to lower it, they sell a dropped spindle for the 3/4 tons and the same dearched rear leaves as well. *-lug is the "new 6-lug" and eveyone who makes wheels, makes a fancy 8-lug wheel. I purposely went the other direction, 1/2 to 3/4 ton because I had the 3/4 ton stuff and my 2wd blazer was missing the spindles, etc. I have 1/2 ton dropped springs, and will get the 3/4 ton dropped spindles, as well as dropped coils for the rear. I had a Dana 60 coil sprung 3/4 ton rear too. The 3/4 ton stuff is heavier duty, but not way heavy weight wise, so no real penalty and a lot of benefit (bigger brakes, stronger rear, and the 1/2-3/4 stuff interchanges almost bolt in (except the 3/4 lower baljoint is bigger than the 1/2 ton, but still fits in the same lower arm, just the shaft is a bigger diameter).


Sorry for the book, but a slammed 3/4 looks wicked and nobody counts lug nuts, at least nobody I care about!!
