Good stuff. We went to a Rockwell 18K axle and dual steer. I think we got lucky and all the dual steer components connected right up to our existing steering box and the frame mount for the leaf spring hanger on the passenger side. One interesting thing I ran into during this process is that the local Freightliner dealer showed me that all the new 18K front axle systems on their trucks are single steer.
You don't have to run dual steer on the bigger axles, only if you need it. I could take ours off but I'd struggle in the parking lots when we're not rolling.
