is it possible to swap a short bed ranger styleside to a flareside? is there any modification involved?
 
I think you have to do something with the gas tank hose?

Other than that, cake.
 
^^yup. Shorten the fuel filler neck and the filler neck vent tube, other than that, it's a straight up bolt on deal.
 
What about the tailgate? i think they may be different width's
 
Yes, tailgates are different widths. The rear bumper should be a different width too.
 
oh damn...i forgot the technicalities. hahaha.


yeah....you'll need a flareside tailgate and rear bumper. Both are alot narrower than a styleside, but I thought that was a given.

Something also to be noted, if you get a 00+ bed, you'll have to reuse your existing tailight harness if you keep your already there 3 bulb taillights.
