crewcab questions.

What is the difference between a 3/4t and 1t crewcab NON-dually? They use the same frame right? Is it the rear spring pack?(# of leaves and width of springs?) Thanks

Re: crewcab questions.

From what others on here say, the 3/4-1 ton is the same thing, maybe the 3/4 ton has few less springs. But they are still based on the 1 ton stuff, frame, perch width, brakes, etc.

Re: crewcab questions.

yes, on the CREW CABS the frames are the same the spring pack on the rear is different do to more springs and over load springs and the spindles are different in the way the caliper mounts
