Hello all,
been a while since I’ve posted; finally got my truck back from a theft and been crazy at work!!
I have an LBZ SRW that I am wanting to convert to a DRW with a flatbed for work. I love my truck and have put a lot of sweat into it so I really don’t want to look for a Dually, I would rather convert it! Long story short, I’ve been scouring FB and CL for 01-07 gm dually’s being parted or crashed. I know they are rare, but I didn’t know they were this hard to find!
I was wondering if AAM axles off the 2011+ dually’s are at all compatible with the gmt-800s? I know lug patterns are different but my thought was with ram having the same axles as the newer GM’s, that maybe there is a chance at backwards compatibility with the 6.5 pattern? Also was looking at possibly installing a trac rite off a ram while building this axle to get away from the G80. Mine is in good shape I just would want the added reliability and do all this once while it’s out. Unfortunately no ram axles are compatible with gm and it’s a bummer because there are A LOT of Dually axles in my area off rams.
Please let me know if I’m way in left field with this and I will delete but I am having better luck finding guys parting out the newer dually’s than the older these last few weeks! Thanks for your help
