1st gen 350 non dually?

Did Dodge ever make a 1st gen non dually 1 ton? I've never seen one in person. I have seen a couple listed for sale but I can't make out the numbers on the side of the truck in the pictures. Trying to clear up an argument.

Thanks!

Yep. I've actually seen both 2wd (Pred's) and 4wd (Thumbs') models.

Ok, guess I was wrong! I assume they are kind of rare though? I've just never seen a Cummins single wheel rear axle 1 ton! I know Ford made lots of them but I just haven't seen a Dodge!

Thanks!

They aren't real common, but they are out there. The 2nd gen 1 tons are all duallies, but the 3rd gens are available as a SRW 1 ton.

I almost ordered one new, but the dually option was only $350.00 more, so i added it to the list.... That was in 92..

That's not a bad price to pay for another 1400 lbs. of cargo capacity.

A 250 was rated for 8,510 lbs., with the 350 SRW only bumping you up to 8,700. The dually got you a 10,100 lb. GVW.

The rear springs are the single pac type, not the two pac type found on the dually's, I have a 89 1 ton.

I almost traded a 2wd dually for a W350 SRW. Decided to pass on the deal, as the dealer had sold the 2wd to me 6mo earlier.

2stroke- nice looking assistant in the pic

My 92 W-350 SRW has the 2 packs of springs under the rear. Comes up to a total of 11 springs on each side. Doesn't exactly ride like a cadillac
