Question Dana 70HD or 14 Bolt...questions.

I just recently bought a 1979 GMC Camper Special and it has a Dana 70HD. The truck is only a 2WD and I need the frame for my 1979 Chevy dually. I was wonderiing what you guys thought of the Dana 70HD. A second question, can I put the Dana 70HD in a K5 Blazer. I mean are the Dually axles the same width as the single wheeled truck axles.

I would like to put the Dana 70 and a Dana 60 in a K5 blazer. We have AWESOME trails here in South Dakota and I would like to make a nice trail rig.


Thanks fellas in advance.

A tired warrior of the 1980s in a world of low profile tires, front wheel drive, and plastic bumpers, where people stay in their houses until snowplows move the offending substance from their paths, too helpless to travel without AAA and chains and salt, clearing their windows with longhandled brushes while gently stepping around in the snow trying to stay nice and dry.
