I could have swore that I read the only difference on the front suspension (except brake sizes) was the size of the axle itself (3/4 is thicker). All other components are the same size; king pins, wheel bearings, and spindle.
I was just told by a vender that is not true. 1/2 ton and 3/4 ton have different spindles, so their disc brake conversion kit will not work on a 3/4 ton.
Could someone please clarify this for me so I know what to look for?
Thanks,
