DUALLY DIFFERENTIAL

I just bought a 1977 ford f100 and would like to install a dually rear under the truck in place of the original rear. I also will have to do the same to the front spindals to accept the same rims as in the rear . What would be a good donor truck and what year would it have to be? Im doing this for a sturdy work truck to fit my work needs. Any suggestions?

Mark, I think that you are asking a very tough question. You would be way ahead of the game to just sell the 100, and buy a 350D. The chassis are different, axles, springs etc. just not a good choice, for conversion. There are a ton of things easier to do than what you are after.

Mark I like the looks too infact I got a large poster of a 250 super cab in the shop!! just go out and measure the center of the leafs (centre to center) it must be 40.25" 250's and 350's have diferent frames than the 150's like the other gentleman said it's too much work
