85 Chvy fleetside to dually conversion.

[JCF]

Hello! Hopeing someone could help me with my new project. I have a 1985 chevy 3/4 ton, crewcab, fleetside, long bed. I want to convert it to a dually. I pretty much have the rear-end portion done. I needed to know if the 1 ton dually spindles and rotors would fit directly on my 3/4 ton A-frames or would I have to swap out the complete A-frames, spindles and rotors? I Know they sell a dually conversion kit which consist of front and rear adapters but I want to also run 10 lug semi-wheels and tires. I dont want to have that many adapters on my truck. Can anyone give me some feed back? I would greatly appreciate it.

I'm thinking you may only need the dually rotors. The spindle nut is way deep in the hub on a dually rotor, like the spindle is the same length as a single wheel truck.
