Yes you can swap them out. The F-350 dually all have Dana-80 rear ends. Your SRW has a Sterling 10.5 rear end. Just make sure you have the same gears in the front that is in the rear.

I'm talking about the ratio, 4:10, 3:73, or what ever. If you have 2wd then don't worry about this.

You are talking about changing the whole differential, not just the axles?

What is your motivation for swapping to a dually, and do you have a dually box located already?

Sounds like the whole axle assembly to me. Not sure why you would question otherwise, I can't see someone trying to put axle shafts from a D80 in a 10.5...

I agree, that's why I asked. He is still saying axles with brakes. I guess I'm reading more into this then there is.

I hope the D80 has the leaf springs with it and the 4" blocks.
