I heard that 3/4 ton dually are equipped with 1 ton rear ends from the factory. | | | | | Joined: Feb 2004 Posts: 29,799 Kettle Custodian (pot stirrer) | | Kettle Custodian (pot stirrer) Joined: Feb 2004 Posts: 29,799 | A 3/4 ton with dual wheels? Was that a factory option? I believe the center section is the same, but the hubs and brakes might be different to accomodate the dual wheels. My 59 1-ton has much bigger brakes than a 3/4 ton, enough that 16" wheels won't fit. It needs 18" wheels to fit over the drums.
