umm he still has the 6 1/2 foot bed on that one it looks like ... i have a 8 1/2 foot bed on myn

 

Sorry man, kinda skimmed your post and saw you wanted to switch to a supercrew cab. Shoulda read it more carefully haha

 

its all good bacily i wont your trucks cab with my bed

 

you'd have to chop the frame. there is a shop that specializes in that somewhere in TX i think

 

o ok cool... i was thinkn i could take a 80s- 96 4 door f250 long bed frame and axels and bolt everything to that

 

You can do that, but youd have to make custom body mounts, change the gauge cluster if you wanna use that engine, or make motor and tranny mounts too. All in all it'd be eaiser to either get a shop to extend your frame or just drive the 4 door long bed f250 haha

 

but out of every ford truck ever made 97-03 is my fave and i got the means to make my dream truck at lest guna try lol and it would have the engen and trainy out of myn just swaping the frame out and axels
