Sled deck on 1/2 ton?

[busted2x]

So can I put a sled deck on a baby truck, Canyon - Ranger - Taco or should I start a new thread? JK

I have a deck for sale right now. Actually had a guy message me to see if the legs could move to fit in his Colorado.

I can just imagine an 8x8 deck with 2 sleds in a Colorado. Would probably break or bend the deck when he goes up the ramp. Lol.

Please educate me how you load weight over the front axle other than two guys in the front seats. Strap your gear bags to the hood?!?

Airbags help with transferring weight to the front axle.

I had my half ton ram parked next to buddies 2500 hd Ram and noticed the brakes are exactly the same.

So at least I should be able to stop next time I over load it?

Exact same how??? In diameter?? Last 1500 I looked at the rear were no where as thick, but that was on the new style ram 1500.

I dont think that is correct, 3500 has 14.1 dia and 1500 classic has 13.8, and are not as thick.

Calipers are a single piston on the 1500 and a dual piston on the HD trucks.

2500 and 3500 I are different for sure .
Dan was referring to 2500 so might be very close to the same ?

I have a 3500, brakes are the same on the 2500 and the 3500 cause they share the same axles.

Yeh when I ordered my 2012 dmax the only difference between 25-3500 was brakes and rear spring capacity and no TPS in the 3500 SRW.
