Re: exchange a step side for a fleet side
I believe that that a frame originally equipped with a fleetside bed has mounting brackets right behind the cab on top of the frame that you will need to remove in order to run the stepside bed.

My step side does have mounting brackets just behind the cab.

Re: exchange a step side for a fleet side
I used a Stepside frame on a 68 short wide build a few years ago, I did not notice any difference .

Re: exchange a step side for a fleet side
I checked and the stepside does have the brackets as well. I was thinking it didn't.
