has anybody ever done this
has anybody in here ever converted a 3/4 truck to a dually rearend an suspension....i might have figured out how to finally get a dually, an with this camper i got i really need the 1 ton suspension. i have access to all of the parts i need, so im really concidering doing this..at this time buyin a dually is not an option, an with the price of them around here, a beat up on is worth a fortune....so let me know, i will take pics if i do this,,,, i took measurements, an it looks like it will bolt right in.....

Just the air bags for load would be about 200. Cheaper than the two extra rear tires.
