My 84 K30 dually came stock with one. It's a beast.Bigger tubes then the 14bolt though. 4". So you will need ubolts. Stock are square and bolt on the bottom. I bought normal ones from ORD and made the spring plates out of 3/8" steel. I did cut the bump stops off since they don't come close to the axle with the 4" lift on anyways. They hit the plate.

Sell the C&C axle and get a DRW 14 bolt. It is 72" stock.

Or a SRW Van axle at 70".

Or get SRW hubs to get you to 67.5" and get some wheel spacers.

How to achieve FF 14b 72" WMS?

Hi all, got an '84 GMC C&C dually with a narrow 14 bolt in the rear. Is there any way (with bolt-ons) to achieve a 72" DRW WMS? It is currently 63.5" DRW WMS, 40.5" spring perch spacing. My goal is to slap a dually bed on the truck instead of the dump. Thank you.
