The basic support is the same, but there are a few welded-on additions that will need to be trimmed off....it can be adapted with a little work. Check out the writeup down at the bottom of this page:

Yeah, I think I'd have either to try grafting some stepside fenders onto the styleside bed, or get my hands on another set of F600 front fenders and use those on the back too. Either way, it would sure be different!dablack00 wrote:What would you do w/ the back keith. Here you have a F100 w/ huge front fenders and 15" wide wheels. Would you get some sort of dually flares for the rear?

The cab is different, the floor has a shallower hump for the tranny plus as Keith stated the steering column goes thru the floor not the firewall. I'd grab the engine and tranny for sure.
