I think Borgeson is saying it’s meant for a 1/2 ton and a 3/4 ton, but not a 1 ton. I’m pretty sure that the 3/4 and 1 tons both used the 80mm box and 1/2 tons used the 70mm. So Borgeson has lumped the 1/2 and 3/4 together.

Did the LD 3/4 tons use the 70mm box?I think Borgeson is saying it’s meant for a 1/2 ton and a 3/4 ton, but not a 1 ton. I’m pretty sure that the 3/4 and 1 tons both used the 80mm box and 1/2 tons used the 70mm. So Borgeson has lumped the 1/2 and 3/4 together.
I've never paid attention to even know there was a difference but I'd say based on my other experiences with 2500LD's, they'll use whatever box the 1500's use. They are quite literally a 1500 with a 9.5" 14 bolt, an extra leaf spring, and a few small gussets added to the frame in a few places.Did the LD 3/4 tons use the 70mm box?
Yes, that’s correct, but @fancyTBI 95 Sierra c2500 is not a LD and his came originally with the larger bore 80mm.I've never paid attention to even know there was a difference but I'd say based on my other experiences with 2500LD's, they'll use whatever box the 1500's use.

I know. I was responding to ol' boy asking about the LD. I would never imply Mr. Fancy is rolling anything less than an 8 lugger.. except for those other trucks of his.Yes, that’s correct, but @fancyTBI 95 Sierra c2500 is not a LD
They are claiming that the box should work with any application that has a front axle weight of 4,400lbs or less. See my two attached emails for some extra info.So they're denying you a refund based on some nonsensical technicality? Are they claiming you chose the wrong box, used it in the wrong application and that damaged it? Or just that you chose the wrong box and it's nonrefundable because it was installed?
Fck Borgeson, is what I'm thinking. Which is a shame to think about, but if it's junk, and their support matches, then fck 'em.

Flip it around, recommended for trucks with a front axle weight of 4,400lbs or less. I have the box still. I followed up today with Borgeson about the weight (fully loaded, yes but still less than their limit) and where to go from here. If I warranty it, it’s going to someone else. If they give me a refund, great. $570 or so for this box.Wait, they are claiming the front axle weight must be at least 4,400lbs or the warranty/return is void? Total BS.
Have you still got the box or is it in their possession?
I agree with Richard. Those trucks are so similar to the 1500s. I’ll let you know when I pick up my LD later this year.Did the LD 3/4 tons use the 70mm box?
Something I don’t know I mentioned, Turn One said that cast number isn’t always consistent with the bore size. But it’s more likely than not that the numbers do coincide with what you’ve shared. Good indicator though!Yes, that’s correct, but @fancyTBI 95 Sierra c2500 is not a LD and his came originally with the larger bore 80mm.

Did Turn 1 confirm yours was the larger 80mm? I know earlier in this thread you pointed out it did have 84 mark.Something I don’t know I mentioned, Turn One said that cast number isn’t always consistent with the bore size.
