    axle swap ujoint information

    I have a 78 1 ton dually crew cab, long bed. It had the Dana rear end and I swapped for a 3/4 swd Chevy rear end. In doing that my drive shaft is too short.

    Narrower dually axle

    So can I change that axle hub back to duals then? I'll have 16.5" of wheel, so will 2"-3" be enough?

    Narrower dually axle

    I have a 78 1 ton, and am going to run 22 Alcoas. I've been told I will need to narrow my rear end to get them to tuck when bagged. Is a 3/4 ton narrower? Can I find a rear end to swap instead of narrowing mine? Thanks

    Awesome thanks. I appriciate the help. I've read that some camper specials have 4 overloads but I'll check it out. I won't be putting a lot of weight in the bed especially once it's bagged.
