Hello, I was wondering if any of you know if an 87' dump truck share the same frame as a K series, or Dually? I'm looking to remove a dump truck bed and replace it with a dually bed. I can't find anywhere if they share the same type of frame, or if it's worth the hassle to put a dually bed on it. Any help is appreciated. thanks.

It’s probably a cab and chassis truck which has a narrower rear end than a regular dually.

Make sure the wheel base is 131.5" for a standard cab truck. If it has the narrower chassis cab rear axle, it will end up looking like this.
