Ok guys, I've got a 70 that i'm building from the ground up basically, full resto mod if you will. Now i'm debating in my head weather i need to go with the one ton's or not. The suspension will be 3 link front and a 4 link rear no matter what i choose, and Sway Away coil overs all around (i can get them at cost). Engine is a healthy 408, NP435, Dana 20 case. Now i don't plan on going with a tire larger than 37" maybe 38" tsl's. I can get a HP 44 for almost nothing compared to finding a HP 60 that i'm looking at around a grand. I already have a full width 9" to top it off. Now the Sterling 10.25 can be had super cheep too, I've seen them as low as $150 so that's a plus considering how strong they are. If i go the 44/9" route, all the internals will defiantly be upgraded. Or should i just bite the bullet and find some one tons?
