that seems like to much going on under there, i think the best way to do it would be to ge an unmarried transfer case and flip the orriganal axle over so it goes the right way and hook it up like that, ive seen it done on a truck around here awhile ago, not sure how it worked though

I think it would look bad a$$ to make my truck a 6x6 dually, but just not till I can figure it all out, for now ill just stick with 4x4

DRW's look sweet, but tires are too dang expensive, so I vote SRW.....for all economic reasons, but I also don't tow a ton....

Unless you NEED duel wheels for the weight you are hauling, the cost factor wins over the cool factor in my book. At $200 plus for a tire, the extra fuel to push those two extra tires around, and since I don't need the extra capacity, I'd never run duels. You are the only one who can decide if you need them or not. Something else to think about is the brakes on the truck. Will they stop the load?

You have a good point jimlj, i think that ill switch it back to SRW till i start hauling more heavy trailers, i just need to find some decent rims now, and make sure that my axles are the same gear ratio
