I did a search but came up with nothing.

Looking at picking up a 94 3500 dually. Would like to switch it to a single rear axle. Will a single axle bolt right up?? Do I have to weld in new spring perches?

Thanks

 

do it like i did, get different wheels................

 

Johnh I need to drive this truck in the snow so that is the main reason for needing a single axle in the rear. What type of rims did you run in the rear? Any pictures? Are the inside dually wheels at the same width as the front wheels of the truck? I am going to look at the 94 Dually this week. So I have no actually seen the truck in person.

 

But if I decide to switch to a single rear axle does it bolt right up??

 

yes it bolts right up dodge is good that way but you will have to replace the bolts and a just the angle of the drive shaft to rear end i did it he other way with one of mine single to dully

 

tech-eh thanks for the info. I will most likely see if I can get a newer rear end with disc brakes.

If I add rear disc brakes that also means I have to change out the front master cylinder as well?

 

yes or get a proportional valve for the rear from summit . rob

 

Rob thanks again. Proportional valve seems much cheaper since Summit is just down the street. Rear disc brakes here I come....!!!!!

 

So guys if I remove the dually rear fender flare is the bed a regular truck bed? Or does it have a larger opening cut into the bed???

I go to look at the truck on Friday. We agreed on $4000.00 if I like it he will trailer it to my house. Right now it has a rough running issue. I think its the lift pump and or over flow valve. It has:

new head gasket
hx40 turbo
50 HP injectors
3k spring kit
steering stabilizer
new track bar
new brakes front and rear
new stereo and all new speakers
and some other goodies......

 

Your right...For the dually the factory does cut out, a portion of the box above the wheel well...

 

Diesel Dave. Is this kinda what it will look like? New dodge but I think this is a Dually bed.....



Seems like I could get come fender flares for a standard bed and make it work??

 

Thats what it looks like...I think flares should be able to cover the cutout..

 

Theres also a large cutout for the fuel filler neck.

 

'04 17"2500 wheels and a 2500 bed

 

John looks like the rear tires stick out just a little more than the fronts?

Thanks for the picture..... (:
