can't help you on the rings except to direct you to john zetmeyers book on dodge trucks. he details the rear conversion and someone here who has the book will chime in. mine is lost.
the best bet on the combat rims is to spend some time with penetrating oil and heat if needed to remove the nuts. once you remove the nuts, take the tire to truck tire dealer to have them dismounted. they usually can press them off. i have always wondered if you completely filled the tire's tubes with water and if you had a way to freeze them if the freezing water would be able to pop them? i had a aluminum canteen that i put in the freezer as a kid and when it expanded it stretched the canteen out to double the size. might be a way for you norther folks to do it. better than trying to pop them with air pressure which is not a good idea.
