You have to also change the rear axle. Or you could go the cheap route and put on 3" spacers.

For the front you would need the factory cast dually hubs. Or again cheap out with 6" spacers

Those aftermarket spacers are not cheap by any means.

Cheap in comparison to buying a dually axle and front dually hubs
