Default Re: Alternative to split rims on 1.5 ton trucks?

I have a F600 with the widowmakers and I just finally decided to pull the axles and stick Ford 1 ton Dually axles under it and call it a day.

It takes #1500 or more to loosen the lugs on a 2 ton. I can't image what a service call on a flat tire on the freeway would cost! Not to mention the gear ratios are terrible for on the road driving.

I want to actually be able to practically use mine when I get it back on the road.
