I have a rusted out flare side bed and am wondering if I need to find a flare side replacement for it or if a style side will bolt on.

Welcome to the forum

1993 to 2011 6ft beds are interchangeable, style or flare side, or Mazda B-series
Regular cab and extended cab used the same 6ft beds
7ft Long Beds need a different rear frame

But(there is always a but)...........style side and flare side use different fillers(gas tank tubes), also the tailgates and bumpers are narrower on the flare sides

2000 to 2011 use 2-wire tail lights, 1993-1999 use 3 wire, but the lenses are interchangeable, so keep your bed's wiring and lenses for installation on new bed if its wiring is different
