Hi all,

I have a 1958 6400 2-ton Chevy and for a variety of reasons I am wanting to take the flatbed off and the 2 outside duals and drive it on the road like that for a while. Can this be done safely and without causing harm to the truck?

thanks and have a good day,

Harrydale in SE MO.

I don't see why not. Make sure the rears are snug since you'll loose some of the thickness which the lugs tighten against. Also, because the threads where the outer wheels were might be buggered a little. Check local laws for flaps and lighting.


When I yield to Him, it's amazing how peaceful and enjoyable life is meant to be.
