op: I'd assume your lookin at beefin up springs as well, these things are pretty heavy for stock 1/2 ton springs.

LOL in that case- remove all body mounting bolts and raise body- kick out the heavy stocker frame, and fire up the plasma cutter..... order a VP chassis kit and happy welding.....:evil

As much as I hate to take away from CompD...
Cruise on over to pavementsucks.com and PM member "SuperHawk"
He did a full conversion and built a pretty nifty rig.

His name is Jeff Somethinorother....I'll be darned if I can remember. There should be a whole thread in the old diesel section of that site on the build-up.
