You truck appears to be a 'cab & chassis' truck. This means it has the narrower rearend. You will have to install a rearend from a pickup bed truck to use a regular bed...

You could just put a regular fleetside bed on. The rear outside tires will stick out a bit, up to you and your states laws to determine if thats ok.
Pictures courtesy of member DetroitDan, his truck is also a cab/chassis. |
