I believe that the f-350 frame is narrower than the f-250. I'm assuming that there was a type-o in a previous post that the box was off an f-250 drw, as far as I know that there is no such vehicle from the factory. I would suggest taking some measurements, start with measuring the bolt holes center to center in the box that was originally on your truck. Measure side to side and front to back, then compare to the other box or any other you are looking at. It sounds like you got shafted on the one you bought.

I think it should not be all that hard find one. I saw a couple of them on EBay few days ago…Look at these item number 270063885161, 270063885286, 270063885454 all of them are active as of this time<O

Thanks for the help guys,
