I believe we came to the conclusion that the rules only allow 1 ton & under chassis, even though we've all seen 2 ton axles under 3/4 ton frames for years.

I won't be taking that roller to CA, at least that I know of.

Frame with axles, for $2500.

Do you know what the gear ratio on these axles is? Been looking for a dually axle for under my 3500. Wouldnt be against swapping both front and rear out if it'd work.

4.88 gears.
The front axle may work, but the rear has a narrower spring pad distance than a pickup dually and it's likely a tire would rub the springs on a standard chassis.
