I understand being busy. Too bad you can't keep it. Maybe another time you'll be able to stay with something.

well I have done the same swap before, it not that much work for the fronts all I did was changed the rotors to the dually stile its a bolt on swap if you got disk already.

for the rear you got two ways, spacers and longer studs off a dually. or swapping out the bearing housing/hubs/drum backing plate. it will depend on what rearend you got now. and the size of the drums on the back.
WHAT ?

tell you true, there are two different dually rear axle widths.

I installed a Dana 70 from a C&C (flatbed) truck in my F-250 a couple years ago. Bolted in, the width was pretty close to the stock front axle (4WD).
There is also the rear axles used under the Dually pickup-boxed trucks that are 11" wider than the C&C axles (for clearance of the inner fenders in the box)

a couple pics of my old truck...

hehe...just got back from a failed attempt to bring the second load down this morning.

Lets just say 18K loaded, an auto tranny, and a fire made the (way to short) trip very eventful....
