Shouldn't it be a 10x10?
I'd hate to have to put a set of rubber on that thing. Heck, that's why I have 2500's now, as I don't want to pony up for the extra two tires.
Looks awesome though.

I have replaced those 6x6 with 10x10. And tires cost about $3000.00 for the ones that are on there.

Actually 6x6 would be the proper one to use.
There was a guy in western Ohio that built 2 tandem pick-ups. First one was in the early 90s, full custom chassis old big-block Chevy. He set up the feed for the rear brakes to run a second master cylinder for brakes on all 6 wheels. And the full-length square tube frame rails were air compressor tanks.
Second one was based off a early duramax, he doesn't run brakes on the rear axle.
Both rear drive axles were driven by a chaincase bolted to the front drive, that put the output for the rear drive over the housing of the front drive. You'd probably have to do some re-fabricating on the rear axle to get the proper driveline angles.
Diesel Power had an article about the second one several years ago.
I bet that would look better with single wheels in the back, on some low-backspacing wheels to set them out under the fenders.
