What is the difference between a Fleetside frame VS Stepside frame? Th fleetside is more larger? Is it the same thing?

Frames are the same...

You can put a step box on fleet frame without modifing the frame and hole for bed floor is the same.

Yup then only things that are different frame wise areL
Rear leaf frame different from a coil frame, and 4x4 frame different from all else
As far as beds go however, they all will interchange

As long as both are short wheelbase or long wheelbase The beds will interchange. Meaning a longwheelbase fleetside won't take a shortwheelbase stepside.

It's logic with the difference between long and short bed!
