Frame swap 95 into 02 2500. Will it work?

Hi all, Like the title says I have to change the frame in my 02 2500 reg. cab 8 foot bed 4x4 with the HO 24 valve and 6 speed. I have the chance to buy a frame from a 95 2500 reg. cab 8 foot bed 4x4 with the 12 valve in great shape for next to nothing. I've looked on here and think I've found the answer but I want to make sure. Will the frame work in my 02?
Thanks in advance, Stewart

It will not be a direct replacement. Things like engine mounts and the frame side of the 4 link front suspension are not the same. You would be better off finding a 98 and up frame.

Thanks. That's what I was afraid of. Changing motor mount locations isn't that big of a deal for me but I really don't want to start messing with suspension mounts espcially since its going to have a plow on it
