Are dually axles and single rear wheel axles the same setup just different rims??

No , dually (pick up ) axles are wider and have bigger tubes . Dump trucks/cab and chassis are narrower but I don't know if they are the same as srw trucks.

No the 250 and 350 SRW have a narrower axle . Also duallyies have bigger axle tubes and axles .

"How about the front ends?? Could you run a dually rim on the front axle??" Yea , you would need the factory dually spacer .

Not even close. The dually rear ends are MUCH bigger, heavier duty.
