1992 Dodge D250 CTD Dually Conversion
Hey There, I just aqquired a 1992 Dodge Ram D250 Cummins. I was looking for a Dually but they are hard to come by up here, and I got an AMAZING deal on this one.
I was just wondering what is involved in converting a single wheel rearend to dually. In Ontario, maximum width for a vehicle or trailer is 102" or 8.5ft. Would it be possible to bolt up a set of dually rims to the stock Dana 60? Not a big deal if they stick out more then a factory dually as long as they are within the law. I plan on having a set of custom fender flares made, so no need to worry there. If not possible and a "dually" rearend is needed, is the suspension the same as mine?
Finally, I am very impressed with the Cummins engine. Gobs of Torque and still averages 22-27mpg!!!
Thanks

you can't just bolt on dually rims on the first gens the inside tire will hit the inner wheel well you have to buy the spacer kit or find a dually rearend they are wider, i tried it on my 1990 and a friend tried it on his 1993 with the same result
