I don't see why not. Just measure your bed and find a camper that fits. You may have to do some wiring for the plugin but it should work, after all, it is a truck, and I mean a TRUCK. Weight for sure won't be a problem. Looks like an old forestry service truck to me.

I Hope So. I am putting this camper (shown on the Dodge) on this truck this week so I can pull the sand toys or boat and not have to haul a seperate vehicle for a camper.

Wow Don, now thats a truck. should be able to haul the latest triple slide with nooooo problem. Only thing about these big trucks is gettin em on and off. Guess they need to make a jack with a 6ft lift. are you going to put a duelly bed on it or a flatbed?
