Body should be no issue so long as configuration is the same. A truck with a regular cab will only except regular cabs as the mounts are different, so you can't put a club or quad cab on. Same with boxes short box goes on short box, long box trucks they don't mix and match unfortunately.

No problem, be sure to post pics! Also be aware the dashes are different in earlier years from later. Since you're a 97, look for one from 94-97. 98-01 have a different dash.
