Re: Project "Rekker"

It's been a long damn time since I've been able to seriously work on my trucks. This 66 started running like crap-smoke pouring out of the breather, so I parked it and drove my panel while I got my little hobby garage set up. I have a spare 250 that is ready to go in(unless I find a big block for cheap)and I've just spent the day tearing the doghouse apart so I can swap in better inner fenders, core support, inner fenders, etc.
One of the front frame horns is about an inch lower than the other, so I have to figure out where the damage is and how to straighten it.
I'd like to put a DRW axle on the back but let me ask: can I run duals with a SRW axle? Do I need spacers or adapters?
So after the truck's running and rolling I'm going to blow the wrecker bed apart and clean it up more, then reassemble it and mount it on the back.
