Talking Dually Tacoma?

Hey all, I ran across this earlier today.

http://www.motorhomemagazine.com/for...g/15928529.cfm

Look to about the 3rd and 4th picture down. Kind of interesting. Wonder what kind of axle they are using?

Thought some of you might find it interesting. I sure did.

Have fun all.
Daniel

Theyre most likely bolt on Dually adapters.

I had never heard of that. Do they just use spacers and longer studs? I thought maybe they had swaped in an axle from an older dually pickup.

Interesting...
