ok maybe im thinking of the 3500's then
i mean i want the truck to sit a little higher but a lift isnt up my alley, i dont know why its just not me. and id like to have that extra ability to have more wieght. hopefully someone who knows more about heavier duty trucks can chime in and help me out
My truck is a 1-ton......The problem is that I don't know the light duty stuff very well. Unless you know what to look for, my 1-ton doesn't look much different than a 1/2 ton. Lifts are expensive that's why I haven't suggested one. They won't increase the load handling, either. Grab some heavier rear springs from the salvage yard (maybe from a light duty 3/4), crank the torsion bars a hair, and get some 265/75R16's (or 285's). Gearing may become an issue depending on what you've already got.
