84 long box on a 93 cummins??

I am in the process of getting a 93 cummins. Right now it has a service body on it and that has to go but the only box ive found so far is off a 84, just wondering how it would look or if its the same body style.... Or if anyone has one that will work. If i cant find one ill have to go with a flatbed. Any input would be great!

If the truck is a dually then the axle could be a different width if it was a cab and chassis when new. The bed will bolt up but the tires would set in a little bit.

I put an 85 d150 bed on my 90 w250 and the only thing I had to do was cut the two angled tabs off the bottom of the bed. Other than that it was a direct swap.

If it was a factory cab and chassis it will have a longer wheelbase.
