Chassis Swap 2005 Ram 2500 with 1969 D200 Crew Long Bed

Post by BobbyC »

Ok realize this will be a thrash and probably take a long time but have 160.5" wheelbase Ram 2500 2005 crew cab with long bed 5.7 Hemi/auto and 69 D200 crew cab long bed with 160" wheelbase. Would like to put the 69 cab and bed on the Ram 2500 frame. Anybody done this or tried? Ready for welding and fabrication but thought I'd check for some practical experience/advise. Regards and Thanks to all!
