14 bolt ? - Pirate4x4.Com : 4x4 and Off-Road Forum

I need some info about 14 bolt axles. I am running a 14 bolt out of a cucv under my Toyota truck and I have a dually dana 60 up front. I am also running H1's so the dually front works great but the problem is I am at about 77" wide in the front and 67" in the rear. I had thought about running 3" spacers but that still leaves me 2" short on both sides. I thought I read somewhere that a dually 14 bolt was 72" wide and the hubs are interchangable with the single wheel 14 bolts. If this is true I could swap them out and run 2" spacers and the widths would be about the same. I dont want to swap out the entire axle because I have already welded up the new spring perches.
I guess my question is what parts are interchangable between a single wheel and dually wheel 14 bolt?

Thanks for the help

DRW hubs make the track narrower.
SRW hubs make the track wider.

The closest match is to get 72" wide DRW 14bolt (92+) or a Dana 70HD (73-91) and swap on the SRW hubs.
