    I really would like an extra cab my truck is great but I would love to see how difficult it would be to convert a single cab to extra couldn't you just do a cab swap or is the chassis longer? I couldn't find any similar searches so that's why I'm here asking.

    If you shorten the bed it can be done with the existing frame. Xcab frames are longer with the same size beds. I would assume at least some of the cab mounts are the same. Rears probably not. It would be cool to see an xcab with a super short bed tho.
