Thinking about goin to a dually

[riotwarrior]

Yes front axle will be changed and it'll either have a dually bed or a flatbed but I haul a lot of hay and pine and cedar post so I can use my truck for it instead of dads or my other flatbed which isn't licensed and needs work.plus I want a dually lol

I take it you plan to swap a D60 in then correct...not just toss dually hubs onto the 50?

I hope you have the correct springs and pitman arm too...makes a difference.

So far sounds like bang up idea....

How wide a deck you want?

I like decks cause you can side load...stake pockets make it as good or better n pu box.

Maybe consider a tipper deck and hoist...then bam...yer unloaded!

Could always build it for a tipper...add hoist when $$$ allows

Yup got the correct springs all I like is a pitman arm and the drag link and a front drive shaft and probably as wide as a normal dually bed or just a hair narrower.idk about makin a tipper but I plan on being a welder after school so a flatbed will be perfect

This is what mine looks like (it's kinda rough, but that's how I got it):

The tool box is sitting in the space for a welder.
Might give you some ideas, anyway.

I thought about a welding bed but a normal flatbed is better suited for me

that's my flatbed right now but it's only 2wd so it not as versital as what mine would be as a flatbed but mine won't have the load capacity either but bein as how I have another pickup I don't really need another one just to run around in. I can make this one to where I can actually work it

Just so you know - there is not but about 1500 pounds difference in
carrying capacity between SRW and DRW with Load "E" range tires.
But I still like the dual wheels
