Hey guys,

i'm thinking of getting a 1st gen and found a 93 DRW that seems like a decent deal. But I don't really want a DRW. Has anyone around here done a conversion? I'm sure there are several that have gone DRW to SRW but has anyone gone the other direction?

Things I would need to do:

New Rims
remove rear fender
New hubs for front?
Different drums for rear?

Any info would be greatly appreciated.

You will want to just get a complete SRW rearend.

On the front, you are right, just swap hubs. I used new GM ones.

You can remove the rear fenders. A SRW box might be easier.

Its not too bad.

 

The fender well cutouts where the flairs bolt in are a lot larger and higher in the body line than a SRW bed is.

 

I been wondering if you just can't bolt on a set of second gen SRW wheels and drive it? Wouldn't the second gen deep offset sort of balance itself out on a dually? I been wanting to try this but I can't find a wheel locally to borrow.
