He Puts Duals On A 3/4-Ton Pickup

He Puts Duals On A 3/4-Ton Pickup PICKUPS Miscellaneous 21-4-2 Hauling big loads down the highway in his 3/4-ton pickup no longer makes Illinois farmer Ken Brittin nervous, thanks to the dual rear wheels he installed on the truck. To make the conversion, Brittin mounted a 1-ton Chevy axle on the 3/4-ton. He used all the original springs and spring hangars from the 1-ton truck. The pickup is often used to haul water. The extra wheels reduce the amount of sway in the truck when moving down the road. Brittin says the extra wheels also make it a better truck for handling a snow-plow.
