[QUOTE="Overdrive, post: 1539483, member: 20954"] I have three super duties right now. 1999 and 2001 7.3 and a 2001 v10 crew. All 4x4. The 2001 axle is like the 1999 single wheel axle. The 01 dually has a D80 and it’s completely different than the single wheel truck. However they will all interchange as the spring pad location is the same. I’m currently in the process of taking off a CM flatbed and converting to a regular truck bed with dual wheels. The cheapest dually bed I found around here was $1500 bucks. And the guy said I gotta figure out myself how to load it. And it still needed bodywork and obviously paintjob. The average price was $2500 for a dually bed IF you could find one. I was t able to find one. I ended up buying a whole truck so I can take the bed. I found a set of fenders but still need to go buy all the little clips brackets bolts screws. All and all the bed swap is gonna cost me about 4,000 bucks between the truck, fenders dbolts brackets and paint. And it’s gonna be a basic paint job at Maaco. Less what I can part out of the donor truck. Not to mention you’ll need the adapters on the fronts and the 6 wheels and tires. I just put $1600 in tires on my dually If you want a dually sell yours and go buy a dually or get a complete donor. The only reason I have to do the conversion is because my insurance company is reclassifying my truck as a commercial vehicle and jacking up my rates to 3x the normal cost. It would cost me more to insure my one truck than all the other vehicles put together. [/QUOTE]
