I have gone where most will no go. I am in the process of adding a 2nd drive axle. I am doing the work myself. As you can tell from the pics. I have came a long ways. I just have the bed work to finish the project. I will be extending the bed & dully fenders to have a full bed. Let me know what you think.The reason I am doing this is to handle the toy hauler better on the road.

To each, their own. :) The truck is definitely quite a beast. :BWith the tripple trailer axles, especially with them positioned so far forward on the trailer as yours are, with all or most of the garage area behind the trailer axles, I can't imagine the pin weight of the trailer being too much for a single dually axle to handle.How are you intending to connect the driveshaft between the 2 rear axles?

Yes it is quite a beast. :C Don't forget to post pics when your project is finished.

Iam planing on useing a NV-200 transfur case to tie it all to geather. That is another phase of the project. I just wanted to get the truck done as it is my only truck I got to tow hauler with. Thanks for asking.

Now that's Redneck as all get out.......:B----But I like it.... lol

There is allways a few that will ride at others expense.

I was just looking back on post. And found this. It appears you are only one making jokes about this. Did you ever look at tailgate of truck. And see the morel on back. That was my son who did 2 years in Iraq. And got killed. The purpose of these kids going over there was to defend the freedom of people over here to be free to do whatever they want. Such as making there vehicle into what they want. Your first post didn't drag anybody down. And as you can see. This one didn't either. Please do not post in my topic if you are going to be negative. Sorry other RVers-
Don't apologize to us, you should have been a little harsher on him, as he evidently doesn't put any value on his freedom, that your son gave his life for. A big thank you to you and your family for raising a son who did care and paid the ultimate price. May he rest in peace knowing that there are millions of us who do care.

No joke. Four weeks of hard work that I did myself. Both truck & RV are payed off. A new truck would be nice. But with three kids. I will be creative with what I got.
