Never even considered it.....I bought a dually for the extra tires and load carrying

I think it would be cheaper to just buy a single rear wheel 1 ton if thats what I wanted

Most dually 1 ton owners bought it for a reason......as I'm sure the single rear wheel 1 ton owners have their reasons too

one reason is , i`m not using it the way i used to, so i thought since my truck is just broke in i would convert it.... it will be a lot cheaper than buying a new one.also no more buying 6 tires...when i get it done i`ll try to post some pics (i don`t have much luck posting pictures)
