rust master,

I'm in the process of building a '59 Chev 3800 (1 ton) dually 4x4 using a Duramax diesel with a 4L80E transmission and a NP-205 transfer case.

I'm using the original frame and springs. The front axle is a Dana 60 out of an '87 GMC 3500 while the rear is a Dana70 out of a '93 3500 cube van (both 4:10 gears).

I will be using the original 9' (yes, nine foot long) bed on this truck and will be widening both rear fenders to cover the dually wheels.
