How to switch to regular bed from stepside?

Hello,

I was just given a 2001 Ford Ranger extended cab 4cylinder stepside. I can't stand the look of the stepside and would like to switch it to a regular bed and lower the truck a couple inches on some mustang wheels 17-18's. How difficult is it to switch the beds? Is there a FAQ or how to thread on here?

Thanks,

I switched beds on my ranger and we never changed filler necks. Everything was fine afterwards and I went from stepside to fleetside. Just got the bed and bumper.
