Swaping the 60 and 14b for 3/4 ton rears

[84CUCV]

On my M1028 i am taking the 60 and 14 out and want to put 10b and a 14sf in. Can i use the u bolts and the rest of the hardware? i know i need 10b spring plates, anything else i should know before i do this??

thanks mike

you already said spring plates... I think you will be ok with the u-bolts for the rear, but you will need all new hardware for the front?

What are you putting the 1-ton goodies under?

info requested

dont forget the front plates on top of the springs. might need a smaller master cylinder for brakes possibly. i would get new ubolts for the front and rear NEVER had good luck reusing them all most lost front axle once. 5 week old uolts lossened up to put shims in then re tourqed and whent on poker run front all most fell out VARY BAD ride.

I can see no reason to change the master cylinder. What... to have less brakes if anything?
