I assume you can get hydraulic calipers for the Axles? What do those things weigh? Black Rock Fab makes brackets for both Dodge 2500 calipers and Ford F750 calipers. I have a set of the Dodge ones on order. Axles are 1500lbs and 1300lbs with the air calipers. They weigh 1100 and 900 with the Dodge calipers

No, but a trussed D60 weighs almost as much and isn't as strong

Very cool build!
Are you going diesel or LS with this one? No diesels for me anymore. Either SBC, BBC, or LS

These all have air lockers correct? I suppose I would be running a pinion brake since its not on the road, would save one disc/calipers worth of weight.
