The initial engineering. Any big holes in this approach that might make it a bad way to go? I'm not so worried about the appearance side as I have other ideas to deal with that.
My post began as searching for a solution to someone else's question and turned into ideas on approach to one of my own.
Since posting I've been continuing to think about my own projects and how this approach might advance them. The 4400 out back has really just been a parts truck in my mind.
I have a '47 5000 (AD COE) where this approach could be what gets it on the road sooner. Some of the assumptions have to be different, and I'm liking the mental picture. But I am beginning to see moving that body to a '54 1-ton frame instead of the axle swaps. I'm currently off work disabled. I have lots of time to think crazy thoughts and little else I can do...
FYI: A '72 C20 and C30 (single wheel) both use the same brake rotor and the same is true for a '90 Dodge W250 and W350.
I checked those years because I'm using '72 Chevy stuff on my 1-ton and if memory serves it was about '90-ish Dodge stuff that others have used to convert the dually front to disks.
