Does any one know the difference between the two? Thanks | | | | | Joined: Jul 2005 Posts: 1,158 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Jul 2005 Posts: 1,158 | The Short Answer is yes.
The Long answer is:
The box off of an AD is a little bit wider than the ones off of the Art Decos, and the mounting is a little different, but you can do it without too much difficulty. You may have to custom cut some mounting blocks to make it fit.
Make sure that you get the short box, though. The long one (3/4 ton) won't work so hot unless you have a long wheelbase 1/2 ton. | | | | | Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 284 'Bolter | | 'Bolter Joined: Mar 2005 Posts: 284 | Thanks for the info.
