Your dually uses the D80, and the SRW truck uses the Sterling 10.50.
Im not sure if this is true for the SD's, but on the older Chebbie 1-tons with the dually 14 Bolt, you could run them with (or without...I forget) the hubs and be the same width as the SRW.

I've seen it a lot here in NJ. Guys who are running from NJ to PA and cross the bridge with no weight or trailer on the truck remove one tire from each side to save money on the bridge toll. It's a couple bucks difference each time they cross.

What about the leaf spring placement over the axle? Is it in the same place DWvsSRW?? Also shock location mount... Just another thing to consider.
