08 450 go from DRW to SRW--HOW????????
I bought a 450 Lariat to drive daily and haul occasationally a 10k. load. I checked with DOT and CHP here in California to make sure of what I needed to be legal. they assured me that if the truck had a factory bed I would not need an A lic or have to pull through the scales. Now that I own the truck and had a trailer built I got pulled over and written up for several violations. I was going to just sell this truck and buy a 250/ 350 single SRW but then I got to thinking, ny truck is perfect (I'm very particular) and if I just chanegd this thing to a single rear wheel and removed the 4450 markers, no body would know and I would get to keep my truck. I know I have seen late model 450's with single rear wheels on service trucks and state vehicals. I would think all I should need to do is change out the rear end and the front hubs to SW style. However, in my investigation dealer and salvage yards think I'm out of my mind. By the way this truck is a 2wd. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
