REALLY appreciate the replies! All good info, for sure. There isn't a whole lot left around these parts; this truck was definitely a strange bird right from the start. I have a set of one ton (4.10) axles from an '89 V3500 SRW that I could use - would 'bob' the frame by several feet and dump bed or flat bed it. That would make it more of a pickup than a Heavy Hauler, but would be more usable on the highway. I've seen on here that the 1 ton idea has been done. More research I guess!
