99 or new bed on 95 obs dually

wondering if anyone has done this before, can it be done? and what sort of modifications are needed.

It wouldnt match up at all to the lines on the cab and Im pretty sure the mounts on the chassis wouldnt line up it wouldnt look good at all

X2. i imagine it would look horrible, IMO.

yeah thats what i have been told but i am not able to find a obs bed DRW in good shape. Only thing i have found is an 87 drw bed. How well would that fit?

[Matt P]

That would fit up fine I have a 91 bed on my 86 F150 that would line up perfectly.

[d15bfi]

positive on that one? I was told that the 88 would fit perfect but the 87 would be a little off? Just want to be 100% sure on this one.

[Matt P]

The body style changes go 80-86 87-91 and 92-97 and if you look at an 87 the beds are the exact same as the 95 and the bed on my 86 looked completely different than the 91 and it matched up perfect so I see no reason why it wouldnt work

[Dave]

87 to 97 beds will mount up fine on an OBS 87 to 91 bodylines will be different though

[Matt P]

Are you sure Dave? I mean I could be wrong but looking at these pictures the lines look the same I know the lines on my 86 are different from the lines on a 91
Heres an 87

Heres my 95

[Dave]

your right Matt. I thinking of the goofy chrome strips that they put on some of the pre 91 trucks where the body is on top
