Thanks for the great welcome guys oh and only the 85 is a 4x4 the rest are 2wd's........ Yes those are 31's on a 2wd! I will post up some of the build threads I have for them in the next couple of days. Barto
well I want to find out what years the dually rearend came in? what gear ratio is in them? and I assume that they are 8" not 7.5" anyone have pictures of what they look like? or even a wms to wms measurement. love the site already Cheers Barto
the years they came in..i know they built abunch for Uhual. i got a dually from th 84-88 year range, but i mostly see the 89-95 model runnin around. WMS?? yes they are 8" rears. mine has 4.11 gears in it, full floater. thats about all i really know as of know. im still tryin to learn more about them. Oh and they also made the duallies into campers 2! hope what little bit of info i have helps..
wms is wheel mounting surface so total width of differential. also any pics and measurements of the backspacing and total width of the rims would be awesome.
Hey man welcome to the site! Love the 5M in the truck! That makes 2 guys on here that i know of with 5M swaps! Friggin cool to see the old skool Supra engines being used!
i can get the full axle width for u, just cant promise how quick i can get it becuase its not currently at my house..i will say that i haven't found any rims for the rear, that and i took it to a rim shop to get measured and they didnt have a clue either
