Question Need help on dakota frame

hi we have a 93 dakota 4x4 ext cab , our drivers side frame is shot , completely ! we know we can change the drivers side but we dont know if a long bed single cab truck frame is the same as ours, we know we will have to change cab mount , but are the frames the same on them, we cant find a frame from a ext cab, are frame same on 2x2 and 4x4 ?

The long bed frame will not work, it has a 124 in wheelbase, whereas your ext cab has a 131 in wheelbase. Also, the 2wd & 4wd frames have different suspension component mounts.
