Difference between 3/4 and 1ton 14blt

[mollyman]

I have posted before about what convertion ujoint to use for my rear driveshaft in my k10 sub cause I put in a 14blt and I got good responces (thanks) But what I didn't think to mention is my 14blt is out of a 1ton. So does it matter or are a 3/4 and 1ton the same? Or are there 2 types of convertion ujoints? Thanks for any help.

If it's a 14blt, it's a 1350 yoke whether it was in a 3/4ton or 1ton or whether it's full-floating or semi-floating.

spring perches on a 1-ton are different, you will need to cut them off and move them. 1-ton perches sit about 2 inches closer together then 3/4 ton models

Spring perches and shock mounts are different. The spring perch spacing on a 1 ton is 40.5" whereas a 3/4 ton is 42.5" center to center. The shock mounts on a 1 ton are opposite of a 3/4 ton.

Good to know, I didn't realize that the shock mounts were different too
