dodge ram dually rear question

ok, im converting my 96 dodge ram 2500 to a dually reaerend. i have the bed and getting custom rear suspension, but i just have a question about the rear itself. i know i'll need special rims, thats fine, but is there a way to still use my current rear, like does anyone sell special conversion kits or such? i currently have a dana rear with 8 lugs, just like the dually rear ends, so i was wondering if i could just put in axles or hubs, or whatever. or are the wheel companies that sell rims for dually conversions with oem single axles? if i have to buy a full rearend i will, its just a hard item to find. the dually rears ive seen usually have like 3:4x gears and i currently have 4:11s which i guess i could swap anyway, i dunno, i was never big into trucks or diesels for that matter so this is all new to me. i appreciate any advice. -Paul
