8' bed swap

[Bigalstud]

is it possible to put a dually bed on a 2500 chassis ??

Well, are the bed & the frame the same lengths

Ram 2500 frames & bodies are 4th Generation & are made in Saltillo Mexico

5th Generation Ram 1500s are made in Sterling Heights Michigan

Why would you want to? It would seem to ke that a "dually bed" is mainly different by having the expanded wheel wells to handle the extra wheels. There wouldn't be any more bed space than a regular 8 foot bed. And you would have to already have the non dually 8 foot bed. The long bed trucks are not just a longer bed. They have a longer wheel base as well...149 vs 169 inches so 20 inches longer.

I believe the Dually Rams have the 8 foot bed & frame to match.

I am NOT sure that you could just add the fenders to a regular 8 foot bed & make it a dually bed.
It worked back in the 1990s

Of course, it would look strange without the dually wheels under it
