Not easily. Its a totally different frame, and would have to all be custom fit. If rust is your issue, I think you'd be much much better off finding another 1st gen ram to pilfer body parts from.

1972-1993 will swap. 1994 and newer will not bolt up. I guess anything is possible with a welder and a torch though.

Check for legality here. In some states it is illegal to modify body mounts.

Does that make body mounts illegal in those same states as well? Im not really into body mounts, but you peaked my curiosity.

I didn't say body mounts themselves are illegal. All vehicles have body mounts. Modifying them is illegal and even that is open too interpretation by the inspector.
