Re: 8 lug wheels - what's on YOUR truck?

Yep its a dana 60 and you are correct. I have the rear figured out I can go three ways to make them fit spacers, dually caps or the route i started and probably the most expensive is longer studs to accommodate a special lug that a local machinist can make me to fit the wheel but the cap will still hit the axle cover plate. so the dually caps or spacers is the better way on the rear for sure. Now I need to figure out the fronts I have the stock disk brake set up and once the wheel is on the lugs are tight the black cap covers that hold the cap to the rim wont reach, I can get one or two started but wont tighten up they pop off so I am about 3/4 of an inch or so shy from making them work on the front and need ideas for that if any one has any. Thanks OhioDan for the info so far much appreciated you to Roger if I cant get the look I want I will go the the steel wheels for sure and will look uo Stockton Wheel for sure.
