Re: 1949 GMC 1 Ton dually custom

I did all my measuring up for the rearend of the truck and I'm about 20" wider than the '49s body lol I can take the bed out 6" with a new bulk head, cross sills etc but then have 14" to widen the fenders PLUS X" amount of extra inches for the semi rims. I can't find a shorty dually rearend up here and I'm not cutting my current one down. I got some semi rims for cheap, so I think I'm probably going to sell my bed since it's in great shape and shouldn't be cut up anyways. I'll just run a custom flat deck on it with big stainless semi truck wheel well
