I recently converted my truck from dual rear wheels to single using the factory single wheel hubs.My truck has the six lug version wheel, not the later 8 lug design. Now the total rear axle width measured at the wheel face seems too wide (5 inches or so) in comparing it the the front axle. I'm not happy with how it looks as the tires are not centered inside the utiline fenders, they stick out way to far, almost flush with the fender edge. I will probably go back to the dually hubs and machine up a spacer so both the front and rear axles are the same width. I looked at a lot of pics on the web and some trucks look like mine but some look as if the rear axle is narrower. Any one had this same issue and what did you do?
