Not as a bolt on swap. I'm pretty sure the cab mounts are in different locations, dash would be different cause of a different size/shape cab, headlights and rad support are different. Hubs would be different(8 lug vs 5 llug) There are probably some small parts , such as switches/sensors, that might work? Maybe a wiring harness if they're optioned similarly, but i wouldn't count on it. Most of the exhaust behind the y pipe will probably work.

Anything can be done with enough fab work.
