will '87 bed fit on my '73 frame?

Found a local guy selling just the bed of an '87 square body. It's a long-wide bed with dual tanks. will this 1987 LWB fit directly on my 1973 LWB frame? I love that it has dual tanks, and the tanks have doors. my '73 has exposed gas caps on the body. thanks in advance

It will fit. Make sure you get the filler hoses from the '87.

owner says tanks are not included, and he will be out of town till January. are fillers attached to bed itself, or tank itself?

there is a filler neck that attaches between the bed and tank. It just attaches with a hose clamp.
