Recently I picked up an older '92 k3500, and did a transmission swap. Sadly the transmission I got had already started going out, and with the old motor it's not worth putting more money into it for me. That being said, I'm thinking of swapping the rear end into my 02 3/4 ton. I've heard the axles are different widths, is this true? If so, could I swap the leafs and all from a long bed dually to a short bed? And one more thing- I'm driving down to California shortly to pick up a camper. Well within my 3/4's rear axle capacity. Could I swap the front wheel spacers on my dually to the current rear axle and stick the duals on? With a 16 hour total drive ahead, I'd much rather have the duals for stability in the back and protection from blowouts. Is this something that'd be safe? I'm running short on time with a sliding fiver hitch still needing to get installed, so swapping leafs and the axle before the trip would take too much time. Thanks for any input

I am the original owner of a 2003 GMC Sierra 3500 dually (DRW). The passenger side fender is broken, the tailgate is bent up, and the bed has some damage from a gooseneck trailer. In short, I am wondering if a complete bed replacement could be accomplished. On craigslist I have seen complete dually beds for sale. I presume the owners are replacing the bed with a flatbed / workbed, since most are zero to a few years old. Does anyone know what years a Chevy or GMC bed will fit as a swap? At its current age and value, I am not concerned about mixing new bed style w/ old cab style.

I am looking for some help here with my truck. Current situation, bought the truck with a no start condition, Discovered Water in the fuel. Drained the lines and put fresh fuel in, started 6-7 times with bad idle then stalled. 8th time started right up drove it around for 30 mins with no codes and prefect idle. Left it idling and went for lunch. Stalled when I was away, could not get it to start. Starting fluid would only keep it going to a few seconds. Then I changed the fuel filter, It Started perfectly for 15 seconds then stalled. It only attempts to start when I leave it alone for a while.
