Default opinions?

looking for opinions,

trying to decide weather or not i want to keep my cummins a dual wheel truck or covert it to single. the spindle is out of round so the rear end thats under it is junk. so now i have a choice, keep it a dually or covert? im thinking covert considering i dont pull a trailer much out here at school. but i'll be home this summer and will be hauling scrap alot to stash cash while i can. decisions decisions.

what do y'all think?

Single axle. Do some upgrades to the engine and make that bitch scream!

thats what i was thinking too. i dont see much of a point to a 4wd dually honestly. and a single wheel dana 70 will be much easier to find even.

Thanks man, I appreciate it! Since I got it in February 2012 I've done:

Pioneer Stereo Deck
Reflex Bed Liner On Rocker Panels
Painted the Grey Grille Inserts Black
Tow Mirrors
Window Tint (5% Back Window & Eyebrow, 15% Side Windows)
Wind Guards on Windows
Headlights
6000K HIDs
Front License Plate & Stickers
(Wheels came on the truck when I bought it but only 3 center caps so I removed all of them)

Had:
Orange and Black Painted Badges (Faded so I removed them)
LED Taillights (One was busted by kids playing baseball in my apartment parking lot)

I'll tell you though, this truck is a lot nicer in pics than in person lol, It's all about how you take the pics. It has hail damage, dents and dings from being a work/farm truck, a pretty good exhaust leak from the manifolds, and has been side swiped. It gets the job done but you should have seen my last truck before I rolled it...

Update: I just added several pics of each truck to my albums, feel free to check them out there.
