Can a step-side bed bolt on a prev. Fleet side application

may be a stupid question, but I have a 79 GMC Fleetside and always wanted a step-side. My bed is shot and non-salvagable, since I have to buy a new one anyway can I get a step-side and just bolt it on in place of the old fleetside -- are the frames the same? by the way its a short wheel base. thanks for any input. bob
