Idk the difference really I just know everyone uses the hub pilot wheels

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
 

PM me your phone number buddy and I'll give you a call this weekend

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
 

Can't wait to see Darcy come together. If Goldie ever needs a new home, I could take her in for you ;). That is my dream truck, a patina'd lwb 50th.

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
 

You're right--I talked to Trevor at TN tire and he schooled me; hub centric is the one to use. It turns out that's what these really are---I got 'em!

Thanks man, maybe one day we can work something out! You and Jranger may be fighting over it though! LOL
Awesome bro!

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
 

Didn't know Dino sold the dually.

Ok....so when are you going to show us some more of Darcy? Is she in pieces and you are holding out? Or really, you have been busy with wifey and the new blessing in the house? I understand that if so....would be cool if you had a meet where everyone lent their expertise and strategically executed disassembly and reassembly....then record it for TV.

I haven't started tearing her down yet but it will take place really soon. I've had a few other projects going on at the shop and I wanted to at least get one done before I start tearing down Darcy!

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
 

I found some old 22.5 steel and was thinking about putting them on the ol 84 c30 reg cab and lowered it does anybody know if they'll work or will I have to modify heavily? Thinking of work/shop truck lowered ratrod style something like that with a cummins 4bt

Steel wheels can't be milled down to 22" from 22.5" and it is very dangerous to stretch a 22" low profile tire on a 22.5" rim. I really wanted to go this route too because I like the steel wheels too!

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
 

Have you had it done before already? Or have you seen any post where guys have done something similar? I just assumed they made a 22.5 low profile shows how much I know. I've even called shops and they haven't foot a clue what I'm talking about

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
 

I've done a lot of research. They guy to talk to is Trevor at Tennessee wheel and tire. He has been talking to a company about making 22" steel wheels but no luck yet.

I have seen some of these myself, I know the hub is different but I'm sure if you wanted to run them you could have your adapters made to match those hubs.

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
 

Any progress pics Rus?

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
 

Sorry guys just been collecting parts and planning, nothing picture worthy. I have two other projects I'm working on in the shop right now. A 67 and a 66 both are for customers; plus my construction business is booming! I am slammed with work! I do however hope to have some updates in the next few weeks though.

You can follow the 67 build here!

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
 

^_- yet again buddy..If you need any help let me know :)

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
 

Rus, you forgot to mention the most important thing.....a newborn at the house. Anybody with kids understands the setbacks and priority changes that occur when your first little one arrives.

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
 

first little one arrives.
Or goes to college and gets a part time job lol :waah:

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
 

Lol very true guys!

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
 

Hey Rus, Are you still looking for a bed? I sent you an email.

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
 

I just got your email Todd. Those are pretty nice looking beds but I have one now. I bought one from board member Twangismythang out of Memphis. Chuck and I drove down to get it awhile back. Thanks for thinking about me though!

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
 

Great to hear that you found one. Sounds like another good road trip. Keep me informed on what you are looking for and I will keep my eyes out for you.

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
 

I really appreciate that Todd! Thanks!

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
 

That's great news, I'm glad to hear it, I'm looking forward to seeing the project go full bore.

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
 

Thanks Brian!

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
 

Well I guess we need to plan something.

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
 

Too bad you are not closer....maybe you can ship it down here for us to finish it :uhmk:;)

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
 

When the weekend is planned you guys ought to come up. You're only about 3 hours from Rusbuilt's shop.

Re: She's a ton of fun (dually build on air)
 

I have no problems with having others help with my project but I dont want someone to do it for me. I've just had so much going on and I've getting a few other projects out of the shop so I can focus on Darcy.
I agree, it would be awesome to have you guys up.
