just found the forum, looks like a good one.

does anyone know if an 08 dualy box would boult to an 01 frame?

Just guessing i would say that it would, but i don't think that the body lines would line up and look right. I am waiting on mine to crack and just going to put a flat bed or a western hauler bed on it.

I agree with Bigred it should bolt up the same since they didn't change frames on the 3/4 ton trucks, all the mounting points should be the same. The only problem like he said would be matching the body lines.
