A friend on mine did this exact operation to his 68 long bed. I just found a short bed frame when I did mine.8)

 It's really not a bad project,I've done 5 to date,once you get the bed off,it's an easy afternoon deal..

I did one complete in a day,drove it in as a LWB,drove it out late afternoon as a SWB..
