I am sorry but sometimes you just dont know what you are talking about.

Spend some time learning then run your mouth.


You call it like the jerk that you are.

I know exactly what I am talking about, and if I don't, I am man enough to admit it.

You seem to enjoy running your mouth, so why don't I leave that up to you?

I can deal with being a jerk.....A jerk that knows what he's talking about.

i know the dually axle is wider thats why i am looking for 4" spacers to make my axle as wide as a dually axle. so i would mount the 4"spacer, inner wheel, 2" spacer for clearance between the duals, then outter wheel. the front only needs the hub adapters the are 3.75" wide. any one have a set of stock 17" dually wheels? thanks for the replys

Could I use stock 17' dually wheels on 2500 single wheel axle to make a dually set up for a '96 PU pulling a 6000# RV? Any one have stock wheels that size for sale? How much? ===Fred===

One the same subject I have been thinking of putting 3/4 ton deep dish wheels on the front. Now I would take the spacer off the front to do this. Correct me if I'm wrong, but, if you had a flat and kept the stock dually front spacer with you, could you just put the spacer back on and use the dually spare to get you to the next tire shop?

as far as i know you can. but if you let me buy those front spacers from you (pm if interested in selling) then you would need two spares or run the front one backwards where it sticks out! i bet that would look funny but someone has probably tried it
