Been here before on this topic, have gone back and forth on it and guess I am back to the idea again.
My question is, since the springs on the 1 ton are 2in and the 1/2 is 1 3/4in the ubolt holes in the axle are different spacing. Is there any issue with opening up the holes in the 1/2T axle so that the 1T U bolts fit? My other thought was using the 1/2T and just grinding down the springs to narrow them, but then realized the thickness of the U Bolts are different.
Thoughts? OldSub I was reading a lot of your previous suggestions and it pointed me back in this direction. I am picking up another 1/2Ton front axle this weekend.
