Default 1998 dashboarsd?

I was wondering if anyone has replaced the entire dashboard with a new one ? Not the top piece or bezel, the underneath ..,.
Thanks!

It can be done, if you can find a donor dash. New, they are prohibitively expensive, if you can find one at all.

Well, I did the upper and bezel with replacements from LMC and had to remove the entire dash from its mounting (but not from the truck) so I know what it takes to replace it. Most of the underneath is removable: glove box, kick panel, cup holder, ABS box, etc. So those can be picked somewhere but the inner frame itself is going to be hard to find. What you'll probably have to do is find a complete dash from a donor and R&R everything to yours. What is the problem? Is it all cracked inside?
