How hard will it be to convert a 98 f250 7 lug to a dually?? Think you just need the bed and rear axle????? And would a f350 bed work and look good????

I know the standard beds are the same on f150/f250/f350 so it should work, but idk about the mounts being the same if its a dually. And I am guessing the dually axle would have a lower gear ratio so if the truck is 4x4 you would need to regear the transfer case as well.

Nope just 2wd and if necessary I could redrill the bed for mounts and I'm lookin for better gears anyways so that would be a plus
