I have digital of the assembly of yellow one ton. I have film type back to 1970. It has been in 7 different confiqurations. It currently runs the 396 to a TH400 (put that in 1975) with a corp. 14 bolt c and c (cab and chassis) dually rear end. The c and c is 6" narrower than the pickup.
Front axle is a 1932 fat beam offset drilled to take 1958 Chevy 38 (1 1/2 ton) truck spindles too which is a home brew disc break set up plus converting to 9/16 studs from stock 1/2". Rear end runs a Blackbird Customs rear disc setup that allows running the stock 16" Budd steel rim.
Rear springs are the '58 chevy 38 without the overloads. For that I run air ride bags under the frame. The frame was parraled and streched in the rear using another 1929 frame turned backwards to match the stock Chevy taper. Wheel base is 147 1/2" and the cab is set back 6" from stock. She runs a full 8' long bed. Run a stock type firewall.
For more info send me a pm as not sure if this thread area is where this should be.
You will need to get used to general public going ga-ga if you build your BB as a hot rod hauler
