i completely understand your point of view since i been in the scene for a little while and when it comes to custom suspension and fabbing stuff i know exactly what i want to do since i have built several trucks for myself and i do it for other people as a side gig, but this whole thing of fitting a 24" semi wheels and swapping hubs and all does confuse the fuck out me lol..... so on the front if decide to go with 3/4 ton hubs which im thinking is the same as fleetside rotors and i decide to lenghten the arms can you give me the inside of exactly what i need to get this thing goin for example,

3/4 ton rotors
lenghtened lower control arms (3"?)
longer tied rod ends? or the stock ones will work?
different kind of caliper or the same as the one ton?
and so and so........

also i just ordered drop spindles and on the applications it says it fits c2500 and c3500 which im thinking that means they fit 3/4 ton trucks and 1 ton also so i should be ok with them if i decide to go with the 3/4 hubs

i know is a lot to ask and most of this info has been covered here at one point in time since i have this thread goin might as well ask everything i need to know so i can move forward, i really appreciate the help and info as i know know not a lot of people come cruising through here anymore.

as far as the rear im gonna do what you suggested im gonna bolt the wheels inplace and measure how wide the track is and compare it to the stock fenders that way ill know for sure how wide i need to go on the streched fenders.

i did, i looked into it but i didnt have any luck finding much here locally and i was trying to avoid spending the extra money and try to work with what i have since i wanted the most room possible for the backhalf i want to build. and yes im gonna be running all 4 24's on the bac.

i was shopping around and found these on ebay and if i can use the same calipers and same drop spindle this 3/4 ton rottors are not bad as far as the price goes and it says it fits my 92 c3500

You may or may not need to swap calipers. I did but others didn't.
