Bed Change
I am looking at a '68 SWB stepside. I want a fleetside truck. How difficult is it to switch beds? Are there any differences in the frames? Thanks in advance

Personal preference. Many years ago I loved the look of the step. I don't know what made me change I just did. If I get this truck I may change my mind again. Isn't it nice how you can do that.
