Chevrolet Silverado 3500 ambulance
Ok, not sure this will work but I am looking at buying a retired ambulance and converting it to a service body to put my truck camper on. It is not a full on ambulance, more like an intercept wit...

Factory cab & chassis dually trucks have narrower rear axles than dually pickup trucks.
The wheelbase is usually slightly longer too. Fitting a pickup bed can be done but it’s not so simple.
Yanking the current body and dropping on a service body should be quite easy, if you find one with all the right dimensions.
Be aware, campers don’t necessariky fit right onto a service body. Campers often have a little “kick out” where the bathroom is, inside the truck box but behind the wheel well. That can interfere with sliding it onto a service body, most of which do not have that extra space.
That’s nothing a cut-off wheel, welder and a little steel won’t fix though!
