Ok, so I wasn't sure the best place to put this question out so here it is. I have been searching but haven't found many anwsers I'm looking for.

I want to know if you know anyone or have pics, links to someone that has swapped 98 and newer Supercab body onto older Ext Cab say 93-97 Frame..

Some online research revealed 93-97 Ext cab 4x4 Wheelbase is 125.2
98+ Is 125.9 so very close
Then another source, Mitchell estimating showed 125 in on Both?? so I dunno

I know from frame swapping my 97 Explorer Sport onto a 92 Sport frame, the front core support mounts on newer Explorer and Rangers are wider than the Explorer or Ranger TTB frames, easy fix, widen the mounts.

I need to go do some measuring on the rest thoe, I'm thinking other than front core support, i'm taking major guess but I bet it will bolt to factory locations.

Thanks for help

ive done it.... have a 00 cab on my 95 frame.. body mounts line up except for the front. you have to widen your front core mounts on the frame and you have to run the earlier radiator and make new mounts for it because the frame is narrower and the 98 radiator is wider
