Ok, I'm working on turning my Ranger into a dually. I'm making 5 to 8 lug adaptors and I'm going to use F-350 rims (dually ones, obviously). I went to the junkyard this weekend and found an older F-350 dually and took all of the measurements I needed (backspacing, etc...). My question is, I figured out how thick to make the adaptor for the front to put the center of the dually rim where the center of the ranger rim used to be. My question is, should I make the same adaptor for the rear? If I make the same adaptor for the rear the inner rim will have the same offset as the stock ranger rim, then the outer rim will just sort of be floating out there. Or should I try to make the adaptor as thin as possible to try and get the center of the duals to be where the ranger rim should be?
Thanks for any help.
