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.

Tell him i will move the legs for him for nothing just to see that

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.

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?
Your good to go.Most one tons don't have good working brakes anyway.

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 ?

we both have 18s mine is 1500sport and his is 2500hd.

if you have a 18 2500hd come park it next to mine and convince me it's not the same truck..lol

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.
