im wanting to convert my 93 XJ into a flatbed dually but i dont know if i have to get a heavier rear end and transmission

 

You might get more replies in the Modified section.

 

Sounds like you need to do some basic research on axles, body work, and fabrication before you start hacking your rig up.

Moving to Chat since there isnt any tech here.

 

yikes.

seems like selling the cherokee and buying a flatbed dually would be the logical option here..

 

And probably cheaper

 

lol

 

 

Its a lot cheaper to buy a 1ton truck.

 

i know how to do it i just dont know if ill need a special rear end or a heavier transmission

 

Yeah u definitely need a new rear end. Specifically a dually rear end. And probably a whole heavier trans. That plus u need to plate your "frame". And leaf spring brackets. And a lot of unibody reinforcement

Honestly it's cheaper and less work to buy a dually flatbed

 

It might be slightly easier to do it to a MJ Comanche not a Cherokee

 

you know how to do it but dont know if you need a dually rear end...

 

lol seriously.

do you know what constitutes a one ton truck? you can slap whatever the hell rear and transmission you want into a cherokee and it still wont be a one ton truck.

i have 3/4 ton axles, huge brakes, and plating... but it sure aint a 3/4 ton truck.

you can make one though... get a long bed MJ and stuff it with a 6.0, 4L80E, one ton axles and a **** ton of plating. get ready to spend 2-3 times more than an actual 6.0 chevy would cost you used.
