I was just thinking about this myself but actually considering swapping out a 1/2 ton suspension into a obs crew cab!
More leg room for the kiddos than the ext cab im considering.

That'd be awesome! CCSB? or LB?

why would you swap in a 1/2 ton suspension? jw

Would have to be SB.
Just found a thread on a CCLB converted to 1/2 ton CCSB.
I think this is the route ill be going!

Heavier truck on a lighter suspension would ride like a dream IMO?
Dropped 1 ton or 3/4 ton suspension would not ride good. A lot of leafs on that pack!

Unless im wrong?

I've thought about going down(not too far because it still pulls a trailer pretty often) instead of up with mine since it's a 2wd but i don't know. maybe drop the back to level with the front and just get a 4x4 later on to lift..

if you drop just the rear and tow any heavy trailer shes gona handle like crap and your gona be lookin out over the hood

Not looking to tow with it. Wasn't looking to tow with the ext cab i wanted to build. Just looking for more room. I like the way an OBS crew looks and thats the way im going to go.
For towing i have this
