Default stepside box

I need to replace the bed on my 77 f-150 and i like the look of the stepsides, but my trucks a long bed. I was wondering if anyone has extended a stepside box to fit a long bed? any hints or tips would help

I thought they had stepside longbed boxes too, but I might be thinking of something else. I don't see where it would be too difficult since the floor is wood. Just weld two boxes together and bolt on the fenders.

the box itself was the same from 1956-86 so all you gotta do is find a long narrow box in that range, theyll be easeier to find off older trucks
