It can definitely be done. Frame swaps are for those with some fabrication skills. Since that was your first post here I don't know what level of experience you have.

I wouldn't do as Vern did (above), I just don't like stacking frames. I would rather fab my own body and bed mounts, but that's my preference.

The reason this isn't a highly popular swap is that a lot of guys don't want to go 4WD and the wider track of the full size, but if you're wanting something 4WD with a higher stance, this is your best bet.
