If that is the pic I think it is, that guy put an IFS from a 3/4- or 1-ton with disk brakes on the front of his. It was more work than he expected but he was pretty happy with that part of the project.
I don't remember what he did in the rear, but I want to say it didn't have the original rear when he bought it.
And he was running a small block 400 with a turbo 400 and I think had some cooling problems.
He may have reported having some difficulty pulling that trailer but I don't recall any details.
12,500 feels more reasonable that 17,500... From a licensing standpoint around here its what its built to handle, not what load you have, that determines if you need the commercial license.
