I know you said you aren't gonna do it now, but just so you know, the front hubs are not just spacers. They are the whole hub, and I'll have to go look at one of the 2wd dually truck I have to be 100% sure, but I think the dually hub and rotor are all one piece.

Are those yours Mike? I'm in search of a D60 dually set. A certain hillbilly won't come off his pair!

I found new unpainted ones on a website for $275, or I can get mine fixed for about the same price. I'll prolly just get it fixed this month when I can get it in.
I am afraid of fitment problems with these aftermarket ones. I know mine fits and its fiberglass anyways. It's not like it's the body itself that's affected. I don't think it hurts the value any as long as it fixed right.

I am down with a set of d60 adapters and some cracked fiberglass rear fenders....

In fact. You can even take my axel... I wouldn't mind a little extra track width back there.
