Big 10 to 3/4 ton need help
I want to convert my Big 10 into a 3/4 ton. What do I need to do to make this happen? Does anyone make a 5 on 5 16" wheel that would work on these trucks.

Re: Big 10 to 3/4 ton need help
What are you hoping 3/4T will get you? More carrying capacity? higher stance?
The rear suspension is already is a 3/4T on a Big 10. For that matter short of the control arm bushings the front is basically 3/4T.

Re: Big 10 to 3/4 ton need help
You will need a 14 bolt rear end for the rear.
For the front, I know spindles and brakes are different but I don't know if the upper and lower A arms are the same. EDIT: A true 3/4 ton setup would get him larger brakes and 8 lug wheels. Last edited by Pyrotechnic; 04-18-2007 at 01:45 PM. |
