Bed Swap

im looking to swap out the fleetside bed from my 99 ranger supercab for a stepside bed from a 95ish ranger i dont know what cab. Can I justunbolt and rebolt or do i need to modify the frame to shorten it? Im not needing a bumper or anything because im going with a roll pan.

if you have an ext cab, it only came with a 6' bed. the 7' was on reg cab, but if you said the other is a stepside, they only came with a 6' bed. it'll swap no problem. as mentioned, don't forget the fuel filler and the rear bumper as well.

long bed = 7'
