So I have a dual wheel Dana 60 from an 88 F350. I was looking at 2 different idea's and what wondering what the overall widths would be. Or if i'm wrong in any of my thinking. I'd like full width axles but I don't want to end up being really wide.
1. keep the dually hubs on it and run with stock backspacing H1 beadlocks, if possible or the most backspacing you can run.
2. Convert to single wheel hubs and recentered H1 wheels...
I am running a srw full width chevy f/r, 38-1450-16, 16x10 wheel with 4" backspacing. I am about three inches to wide to fit between the trailer fenders. I have to drive over one fender and center it. Still works though.
thinking stock is 69.5", lets say thats 9" wider than stock. DRW is 4-5" wider each side, so let's add 9" overall, you're at 78.5". the use of H1s will be about 3.5" more BS than stock, so subtract 7"s. It's like a width of 71.5"
I plan on cutting off 5.5"s to get me a 66" width look.... just a thought...
I am running a DRW chevy 60 cut down 4" on the long side.
IIRC, my front width is right around 79" from outside lug to outside lug when running H1's and 36x12.50's.
