OK, here's the deal I have a 97' F-250HD that I want to run stock H1's on. I currently have 2 sets of ballistic fab 2" wheel spacers on there and I like the stance of the front but not so much the back (I can live with it, but it being narrower has annoyed me since I've owned the truck). I also have a set of dually 60 hubs I could use but as you know that would throw off my track horribly.
Now for the questions and options. I know you can take a DRW 14 bolt and drop SRW hubs on it and that should match up to a DRW 60 front pretty good.
Or I could get a van 14 bolt which is a little wider than the SRW and throw my spacers on there but then it may be wider than the front, or just about right not really sure.
What other options are there, dana 70? It can be done the same as the 14 bolt right but the 14 bolt axle flanges dont bolt up?
The main problem with the 14 bolt and the 70 is there is no VSS and I'd like to keep my factory speedo if possible.
what about sterling axles, All i can find is that they are in fact different as far as DRW, SRW, and C&C but I cant find any hard numbers.
Just trying to compile some info so maybe it its easier to find and here some opinions about it or any data you may have. (I'm sure most will opt for dropping the spacers if I can)
