Default Swap parts to 2003

Okay I'm new here and my first big question is this, Will parts off of a new Ranger fit onto my 2003? Like will doors and a bed and a bumper off of a 2008 fit onto my truck? Without extensive modding? Any help would be very appreciated! Thanks!

Yes bolt on, won't have todo anything. Except wiring in the doors depending if you have power or not

Right now I have power windows so is the wiring the same?

yes, I'm not 100% with that part if anything you could just swap over the buttons from your truck to the new doors, the bezel where all the buttons mount, mounts the same way on the new doors they just look different

Okay I've come to the conclusion, that instead of new doors and new bed I may just get newer mirrors and find a way to get them on there and then just get a new tailgate and a new front bumper! Im sure all these should go on pretty easy right?

06 mirror swap is pretty easy the wiring colors changed and you'll have to trim the mounting bolts a bit. Ive got about $60 in mine including new aftermarket mirrors. You'll just have to get the pigtails off your old mirrors and splice them in.
