Sorry if this has been covered... Has anyone here done a box swap or know of a write-up? Mine is uber-rusty and I just bought a new box which is coming in 3-4 days!

Apparently, it's not that difficult...

Nothing?

super easy, i'd spray all the bolts with some penetrating oil a day in advance. I think it is six bolts but don't hold me to it, just unbolt the box and unbolt the gas filler, remember the tailights and the wiring harness. Just to make it a little easier take the tailgate off first and remember the weight distribution will be towards the front now. Bribe a friend with beer ( after the work is done ) to help lift it off and your golden.

Thanks. I just wanted to make sure that there wasn't some kind of catch or some burning fact that would kill my gas tank or something.
