Re: Will they fit?
I think spacers are needed not only cause the off set isn't as deep and the wheels look too far in. but the hub is different sized I think, I know that to be the case for 1/2 ton not sure about the 3/4 ton. Jim

Re: Will they fit?
3/4 ton are generally compatible, even Ford, Dodge and Chevy.
What exactly are you looking at?

Except newer Fords (1999 up?) which are metric and will not fit.

Re: Will they fit?
Ford went metric starting in 99. GM also metric around 08. So depends on year od take off. I have seen a few 67-72s with the alloy 01-04 wheels. (I forget when they changed.04/05?)

Re: Will they fit?
Might have to change the lug bolt diameter, but yes they do. I put spacers on the rear so the rear end would be as wide as the front end. Also had to do that so the centers would fit over the Dana 60 rear-end.
