Converting a Cab and Chasis

Converting a Cab and Chasis
I need some suggestions.
I have an 02 3500 dually cab and chasis with no bed. We bought a dually bed and want to put it in the cab and chasis, problem is the cab and chasis rearend is narrower than the new bed. What can I do to widen the wheel base. I have heard of spacers, they look simple, Are they safe. I haul alot of stock and cant afford fixing one problem to create another.
Thanks for you help

How about a regular box with bed floor notched and wheel humps chopped and sectioned to clear the inner tire, add bushwacker fender flares to cover the meats. Or just put in a lift kit and add the flares....this works!

Why is it that they make the C&C axles more narrow?
