Is that Dean's old truck?

Ok so I'm not really feeling the 8 lug set up... Is it possible to just swap out the 3/4 ton suspension for the 1-2 ton? Is it literally just swapping the suspension parts and rear end over?

The rear is fairly easy, is it 2wd or 4x4? The link won't work for me. But why would you want to spend all that money to put weaker parts in a truck?

I can't get in to my photobucket account but here is a link from Craigslist where I tried sell it

About swapping it I was thinking about for the wheel selection haven't seen any 8 lug wheels I like plus I don't really tow anything

Yes you can just swap half ton suspension over.

hi 2C3, I have the identical truck but it is an 1999 3/4ton 2 wd black on tan leather. I have swapped the motor in it since it was seized when I bought it. I have all 1/2 ton lowering for it, DJM drop spindles, drop coils, rear flip kit and shocks front and back and also have the shock extenders for the rear shocks. I'm planning on swapping the rear end out for a 6 lug disc rear end from a 2001 truck and I plan on using the LD 6 bolt front rotors. You can either redrill the upper arms for the smaller 1/2 ton BJ's or get a set of 1/2 ton a arms. Lower a arms and BJ's are the same.
