Default stepside box on a 2nd gen Ranger

Has anyone ever tried putting a stepside (or whatever Ford calls it) box on a 2nd gen Ranger. Just curious if it would work and look decent.

It wont work unless you mod the bed somehow to fit the frame.

No problem. It would be bad ass if they were a direct swap though!!

I dont think it would look right the 2nd gen is more box like correct where as the newer beds have some what more curves and such on it. Am I correct in the thinking? Though you could take the sides off and mold them to the stock bed?
