As said in my PM the bed itself will bolt right up but the problem you are going to run into is that the dually beds ar cut out quite a bit in the wheel well area. What I believe you will need is to get someone with a dually to measure there opening under the fender to see exactly how big it needs to be and then cut it and get a set of fenders and your on your way. Unless you are planning on going to SRW then forget everything that I just said .

In that case any dodge bed from a 81 to 93 will work just fine for you. Although I dont think that you will need to chang your rear you might be able to get a set of spacers for your rear to get the wheels in the right position to line up with the front wheels.

Where in ohio are you? I have a dually bed that is in desperate need of relocation. Some dents (fixable), no fender, no tailgate. Get it out of my way and it is yours.
