41 Chev front I beam axle

[scottaus]

Hi,

Can some one please tell me if there are different sizes
in Chev front I beam axles, what I mean by this is say
a 1 ton pick up front axle the same size as a 3 ton Chev
truck front axle (is it the same casting/forging or is the
truck much heaver duty casting/forging)
My thinking is all the weight is over the back wheels
so the axles may be the same size but not sure.
If no one knows may be some one could point me in the
right direction to ask some one else.

Thanks for your help in advance

Scott

You may have to register on anothe board to find the info you are looking for.

Take a look at www.67-72chevytrucks.com There is info on everything you could imagine.(the name is misleading though) Go take a look. If you register, please be sure to do an intro post before you start asking questions. There is a specific place for every year chevy truck there.....

Hope that helps...

Scott,

I don't have a specific answer to your question but you might pose your question to this place, http://droppedaxles.com/ . The owner was a member over at KB but I don't remember his user name. Since you are a member over there, you might be able to figure it out. KB member coolerthantheman used this place to drop an axle, so he may able to steer you toward the user name.
