what the heck did you buy and not tell me!!!

interesting question..... the swb frame didn't have stepside mounts and fleetside mounts, so changing out the beds should be as easy locating the right hardware.... I looked in LMC catalog and there is a difference in mounting hardware.

are you looking at a project rig??

Thanks. Answered my question. Now I just have to locate a short stepper bed and I may have a cool rat rod project.
