    Isn't a normal dually rear axle the same width as the front? The inside rear tires follow right behind the fronts. I believe this is how Andy's now Brandini's scout is set up.

    I see mention of heims. You must use bushings at the axle, use the sweet huge bushings from the superduty if you have them. I'd just extend the superduty arms if you have them.
