Re: Thinking about new project.....
Thanks Greg.
I know the width is gonna be a problem. Were all the 73-87 3/4 & 1 tons the same front width? How about the dually rear widths?
I saw a picture somewhere of an original 1950 1 ton panel with a factory dually setup. And it fit inside the stock rear fenders. Now that's one really rare panel truck!
So that makes me think that there are different widths of dually rear axle setups. I realize I might have to widen the rear fenders and that is not really that big of a deal, but the front fenders present a bit more of a challenge. I was thinking fenders from a 1 1/2 ton truck might provide a extra inch or so. Widening the fronts and making them look right will require a bit more skill.
