Bob - Bjorn Brandstedt is on this list - he did an article on converting
over to 11.00x20 singles in a past MV magazine. Try to find a copy, or maybe
he'll photocopy it for you. If you can't get hold of him, I can copy it for
you.

It looks like all you do is flip the hubs around, and put singles on the
rear. Wheels are like on the front axle, convex side out. Flipping the hubs
converts them into the same track width as the front wheels - better for mud
and sand. But less stable. For me, I'm converting over to 11.00x20 duals.

There are quite a few 11.00x20 single tired deuces coming out of the Marine
Corp DRMO's.
