dually d60 front
well ive finally got the money for a d60 front, and im looking for one that is a dually front, but it is kinda hard to find one. so my question is what all is the difference between a SRW front, and a DRW front. is it just the hubs? my buddy has some hubs of a DRW front he has, could i just swap those over to a SRW front and be done with it, or do i need the shafts too.
or should i just hold out for a DRW front?
thanks,Austin

hey cody this is for an upcoming update to the blue truck. i dont think im gonna convert to a dually on the tan truck right now. but i got a d70 for the rear, and im looking for a d60 dually front for the blue truck, its gonna get stretched back out, and get a longbed, and become my work truck. its just not economical for me to have that truck sitting for long periods like it does. and i possibly could be 4linking the back with some air bags.
it will end up being my end of summer/winter project.

ok i might be reading this wrong but are you putting 2 tires on each side of a front axle?
if so that seams really odd to me.......
or are you just putting a rim that looks like it is off a dually truck but still only one rim?

Sounds like he is doing a real dually conversion for a 70's era truck. Real bud rims for a real dually truck. . .none of that after market spacer crap.
That what I got out of it anyways. . .

hahahaha hell no, all though dual rear tires on the front would kinda be cool, it wont happen in my lifetime. and yes im doing a dually conversion and am having a hard time locating a factory d60 dually front. im gonna pic up a KPD60 front next week, and put the factory DRW front hubs on it.
