Re: Camper shell???

What you don't want is an 88-98 GM one. They decided to taper the bedside in at the rear for silly cosmetics. Up to that point you could swap from bed to bed between brands. Not sure about Dodges, but the Ford beds remained true to truck dimensions at least through '96 and maybe still. But with trucks being built more as passenger vehicles than work trucks I wouldn't be surprise if all the late beds are designed for glamour over function as well.
