Dually Wheel Conversion

Sponsored Links

Seems like a lot of truck enthusiast are looking at doing Dually Wheel Conversions on their 3/4 ton and one ton pickup trucks these days. Some want the dually wheels and tires thinking it will increase the trucks gross vehicle rating (GVWR) capacity. While others just want the look of a dually truck and don't intend to haul or pull anything very heavy. GVWR capacity is determined by the axle and not on how many wheels it has. Unless you change the rear end, you're still stuck with 3/4 ton axles. A better choice would be using a 1 ton truck such as a F-350 Ford single wheel drive.

The wheel adapters are the weak point. Always use a heavy duty steel dually wheel adapter. These steel adapters are much stronger than a aluminum dually wheel adapter.

Depending on the truck, most Arrowcraft Dually Conversion Kits will run you about $2000.00. Arrowcraft dually body conversion kits or dually kits consist of 2 rear dually fenders, rear adapters, front wheel adapters, 4 Alcoa Aluminum Rims, and 2 steels rims, caps and lugs. However, you could save money by shopping around for the adapters, Alcoa custom wheels and steel dually rims. Other cost involved would be the dually tires, paint and the cost to extend the gas filler neck.
