Default Dana 80 dually

Has any one on here put a dana 80 dually rear end on 2500 to make it a dually 2500? if so how hard is it and how much modding is needed?

I would assume it shouldnt be to hard, it would be pretty sweet though. Im guessing it would be just like having a 3500

if your truck had a single wheel dana 80 then the dual wheel dana 80 is a direct bolt in. the cab and chassis rearend is narrower.

a dually dana 80 from a regular dually will bolt in to a 2500 truck. a dually dana 80 from a cab chassis will not work. SRW and DRW beds are the same so you can order dually sides and bolt em onto a SRW bed however you will need to cut your wheel well larger. for the front if its 4x4 all you will need are the dually spacers you do not need the whole axle.
