Hello Rob,
No I have not done it. Speculating only. Because of the wider axle on the WM series trucks there is good clearance to mount a dual on the inside without getting to close to the springs. To me if you can put the dual on the inside you would have two advantages. One is that the inside wheel would track a path inside of the front wheel spliting the difference. Second it would allow you to mount the stock wheel reversed on the outside instead of another dual rim giving you a narrower overall dual width. With two dual rims mounted on the rear the front wheel would track a path between the dual rears. This would be the ideal dual set up to me.
I sure would like to know if it could be done. I don't have a disk brake setup to try it on. With the dual on the inside the stem faces to the outside wheel and sets real close to the rim. Should be enough room to clear the brake caliper I'm thinking.
Try it and let me know. ...... Jackson
