depends on how long the wheel base is. if the wheel base is long enough or longer you can put the bed on and just have a gap in between the bed and cab, or if it is not long enough you can trim down the bed. with time anything is possible.

well it depends on the truck I believe you could get a 350 chassis cab without straight frame rails, but the 450 550 and most 350s have straight rails and your bed will be all mis-aligned with the cab.

The frame widths are different none of the mounting holes on the bed will match up to the frame

Simple bolt on, the answer is no. As stated, the frame rails are diffrent. The wheel base measurement is also diffrent. If you got time on your hands, and want to make a custom, one-off type thing, sure, anything can be done with enough time and money, knolage and tools.
