Can you put a 86 4×4 single cab on a 87 4×4 suburban frame?

I don’t think the box will work. You could get away with the cab probably but you would have to move body mount locations on the frame. You could maybe possibly build some steps on the frame to get the bed flat and solid but I’m not sure. Rear driver side shock mount bracket would be an issue on the suburban frame.

The wheelbase is the same but the frames are not. I’m kinda just guessing here. But in my opinion way too much work
