Default Re: Transplant truck chassis

theres 2 "dually" widths from what ive been told by a few yards..years ago i needed a rear..

the true truck dually and a cab and chassis dually..the cab and chassis rear is more narrow...

i dont know for sure..thats what they told me when i needed a rear...the 1 ton dually rear is wide..from what i was told..the widest rear GM made for a medium duty truck..and around here they where impossible to find

If was going to do a rear swap..id look at dodge duallys..they are dana 70s and 3.54 gears are very common in cummins powered trucks,,i had 3 of those and all 3 where 3.54 posi

matter of fact..id look at a whole dodge chassis with a cummins...they made long bed extended cabs trucks...pretty common and pretty cheap for the mid 90s trucks now..i bought 2 of those trucks for under 2 grand for the cummins swap in a GM chassis...now looking back..i should have put the chevy cab on the dodge chassis and been done with it...but then again...thats too easy and no fun...
