Thanks for the info Hoss. I figured it would have a higher rating. This truck does have 17" wheels if that matters. Probably all the brakes can handle. My new F-350 DUALLY work truck has a 13,000 GVWR. It has real good brakes though. I have a complete '70 1 ton front axle that I'm considering puttin...

I'm a active trail rider. I have a 'o1 YZ250 and a '01 KTM520. Both my bikes are in good shape becouse I like to go deep in the forests with them. The light YZ 2-stroke is a lot more fun to ride than the KTM.

Swapping axles

I have a complete Chevy 1 ton axle that I'm considering putting in my heavy beast. Anyways the guy who put the diesel engine in said those wimpy Chevy open knuckle axles are not nearly as strong as the Dodge closed knuckle :shame . The truck already has a Chevy power steering box in it so the axle w...

JimE, the thing that's going to sag on this truck is me! This truck is going to ride like a pogo stick in the rear. Therefor I got the wheels spinning in my head on how to soften up the ride in the rear. I'm considering putting some truck air bags with ladder bars on it. Or remove a bunch of leafs i...
