    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

    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.
