    How much and how big of a PITA would it be to convert SS drives on a tractor to duals?

    Most cases , just unbolting them and bolting on the duals . As long as the axle is standard length . Some had a longer axle to move the SS wheels out , to widen the stance. Next is check the length of the wheel studs . That can be a issue , just switching from steel to aluminum rims with duals . Just need to do a few checks first.
