So the box on my '94 is rusting out around the wheelwells pretty bad on both sides, plus behind the right rear wheel where the exhaust comes out. The cab is good though, so I'm doing an "upgrade".
I picked up a 2000 Ranger Sport box (call it a sportside, styleside, stepside, whatever....) for a great price, with NO damage at all.
I know a buddy who does paint, and if I sand it down for him, he will shoot it in the same shade as the truck on the cheap.
My question revolves around fitting the new box to the truck. Is there anything to be aware of ahead of time? I already know the taillights won't fit, but how about other things like the fuel filler hose, etc?
Anyone gone down this route before and can give me some pointers to save time?
Thanks in advance.
Box looks like so, except it's white at the moment:
