I was thinking bed mounts might have to be found and put on. Just didn't know if it was basically the same frame. It could open up possibilities if a guy wanted to build his own longhorn out of a 133" c&c frame. A guy could always swap out a rearend. Sometimes a poor guy has poor ways. �� I'm just trying to learn a few things about these trucks as I haven't ever really had any of them.

Sounds like a plan. 14 bolt rear ends are fairly easy to find.
