need help with drw swap!

[1STGENFARMBOY]

Rear just needs longer studs, front needs hubs. I have seen dually simulators put on front 3/4 ton wheels and not look bad.

That is not a good idea. The SRW wheel axles is almost 12" narrower than a dually axle.

i guess this is all i read

dang-it i thought i read that word for word, guess not eh.

Senior moment.

I've thought about converting my w250 to dual wheels. I'd rather find a w350 club cab but they are few and far between. the few that i've looked at were absoulute junk.

Keep your eyes peeled and be patient, and when a nice one comes up that is fairly priced, nab it fast and don't be afraid to travel a bit. Before I got my 91 back, I was looking at trucks out of the southwestern part of the US, just because there is little to no rot down there..

Thanks for the info.

I hear you there. I'm actually doing a wide regional search.

Ballpark ? What do you think is fair price for a decent w350 club cab? I prefer auto but 5 speed will do if the deal presents itself.

Unfortunatley, the prices on 92-93 DRW club cab W350's in good shape is on the rise, especially Getrag trucks. Some low mileage, ultra clean ones on ebay have gone for $15k+. Personally, I wouldn't give over $7k for a decent one, but some folks have spent more. Mileage is something that doesn't bother me much, as long as it has been maintained regularly. Body rot is the biggest thing...

Just because the body is rough on a truck, doesn't always mean the drivetrain is junk. My 93 is a great example of that. 500k and counting! Have a different body to swap on it. Get to it one of these days. Working on building my crew cab.
