When I was at the yard, I did my best to measure the axle housing width from flange to flange and I think I got 56" on both the 1 ton and the 1500 that I measured. Then my buddy said "what you want to do is measure from the outside of the leaf springs on both" and I think I got 49"...so if my measuring was decent, that would say that they are pretty close if not a match.
I didn't have a jack with me at the time and my buddy was in a rush so I didn't get as much done as I would have liked. i will try popping a wheel, rotor and spindle off of a 1500 and see if it will work on this guy.

is that picture of the truck what you were referring to with the dualies? I always thought dualies were two sets of wheels that were bolted together or something, so you have 4 wheels out back. I will shoot some pictures of my 3500 when I have a minute, but I was told that it had fender flares from a newer vehicle, it doesn't look bad.
