Anyone ever tryed to swap the bed of a rcsb with a stepside bed? Wanted to know wether it could be done and exactly how difficult it would be.

 

I want to swap my fleet side to a step-side. It can't be very difficult. Bumper bolts, fuel filler neck bolts, disconnect wires for lights, bed bolts then swap.

 

Very easy- 8 (I think) bolts, theres a main connector for the tail lamps, disconnect the fillet next and find some hearty friends to do some lifting. The bumpers are different I think, and I'm shooting into the dark, but since the step sides fuel door is in the step recess, the neck itself may be slightly shorter.

 

has anyone here actually done the swap?

 

I am going to do it if i can find a person that would like to trade a fleet for a step thats what i have is a step. The bed bolts will line up just right, the bumpers want i will have to get a fleetside bumper so when i trade i will do the bumpers at the same time.

 

So you got a stepside? Well i'm looking to get a truck within the next couple weeks and they don't make the stepside anymore and i prefer the stepside over the reg fleet. Maybe we could swap. BTW, what color is your truck?

 

The pictures of my stepside I sent you a pm blank260

 

I just did it, bumpers are different and a completely different filler neck, but fleet side filler neck can be modified to fit, just has a bad angle to fill with, wiring harness for the lights are also different, but plugs in on the frame are the same. I also got rid of the hitch and rear bumper and put a roll pan on mine, street scene still makes them.
