Dually - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

lutherb69 · 03-02-2007, 03:16 AM

Just wanted to ask what way do you think would be the best way to try and make a Dually.

1# Take Ramp Truck and drop a bed on it with step side fenders on it.

2# Take a Truck change the front and rear axles.

Or is there a better way to do it.

#2 because the 1 tons are longer behind the cab.

cooters · 03-02-2007, 09:46 AM

find a 73-87 dually and swap in the diff and front crossmember into a 67-72 chassis and you have an instant dually

the guy that lives across the street from me has a 1967 GMC Dually for sale,it does not have a bed on it cuz it had a big ass camper on it. He told me that he had that truck and another 1967 truck that goes with the dually and some other stuff also, he said he wants $1500 for everything he got for it.

lutherb69 · 03-03-2007, 08:21 PM

Thanks Farmtruck71

lutherb69 · 03-05-2007, 02:15 AM

The guy said it has a 350 w/400 tran runs good asking 750. I'm thinking take off the ramp and put a bed with flairs on it. I'm going to look at it in a few days.

longhorn71 · 03-05-2007, 02:19 AM

or use a 133" wheel base 1-ton and swap a longhorn bed on it.the rear axle is narrower so the wheel wells would need some work and the tire will not stick out to far

Farmtruck71 · 03-05-2007, 05:28 PM

The guy across the street went out of town for the weekend and i'm waiting for him to get back so i ca et you those pics cuz i'm not going in his yard since the gate is locked

I need to figure out how to get that here if you are not going to keep it

lutherb69 · 03-06-2007, 09:30 PM

Thanks Framtruck71
LUV2XCLR8 let me know if you want so if I don't get it I'll let you know. I'll tell him that I know someone else that wants to get it.

**kwmech** · 03-06-2007, 10:21 PM

Why don't you start with this

**Hart_Rod** · 03-06-2007, 11:19 PM

lutherb69 · 03-06-2007, 11:28 PM

If I had the money I would luv to @ KWMECH but $750.oo to $7000.00 is a-lot of money in between. I think shipping would kill me.
