Hello I am new here. I did a search for the dual rear wheel conversion after seeing David Anthony`s Truck. I would like to do my K30 the way he did with GM parts. I have a 86 K30.I apoligize in advance if this is out there and I missed it.Any help would be appreciated

Too bad you're that far from me ( I'm down by Baltimore , Md ) as I have 2 Dana 70 HD rears and a bed with dually fenders on it ...

Hi Mike , sorry for the delay but I'm having computer issues . The bed is not an original dually bed , it has 2 new GM dually fenders ( one with a 1 inch crack at the bottom ) and a bed liner . It will need painting along the bottom and the tailgate as rust is starting to show . Color is red and white . It is set up for dual tanks and is in good shape , no holes or dents . I parted a couple of trucks that had Dana 70 HD rears , sway bars and dually front suspensions ( 2 WD ) and still have the 2 Dana 70 rears , one was an 83 and the other was an 86 . I paid $600 for the bed and would like to get $400 for it .

Hope I'm not too late. There's a company called Arrowcraft that supplies conversion kits.

I have a dana 70HD with 3.73 if you are looking for a rear

You need to change the hubs on the front and the rear axle needs to be wider. The dually pick ups used the widest width and the cab and chassis used a narrow set up.
I know I have a complete GM dana 60 front duall but will need to look to see if a rear is available. I would rather a single wheel front and would swap even and the back is fairly cheap.
