longbox stepside/fleetside conversion

[hollywood763]

hello everyone.
I bought a 66 chevy longbox stepside a couple weeks ago and I have a couple questions.

1) is it possible to switch the stepside bed to the fleetside longbox bed without any modifications? I was told it should bold right on, but he wasn't exactly sure.

2) can I swap out rearends from 62 through 65 chevy trucks into this 66? could I have the gears switched without taking the rearend out of the truck? it's a C-20 and want to put in something a little more hwy friendly.

I'm in the process of moving right now but come the first of the year I plan to dive into it a little more and see what I can do to make my truck what I want it to be. no better place to start planning and getting info than right here.

thanks!
