Just wondering if parts are interchangable or not, and I might want to go with a 1/2 ton frame and box.
Thanks,

Frames are very different but cab from a larger one will fit it. | | | | | Joined: Apr 2008 Posts: 7 New Guy | | New Guy Joined: Apr 2008 Posts: 7 | Thanks a lot, I was just thinking a 1 ton might be too long to drive around the city in. Especially for my Wife that wants it as hers. This way I don't have to justify parts!!

Front fenders on 1.5 and 2 ton are identical. They are bigger than the small truck fenders.
