I have a 2001 2WD Crew Cab and a 2003 4WD Crew Cab. I know that the front clips can be customized with a kit to fit a clip off of 2016, as far as I know.

I have questions about the bed, seats and doors. If I wanted to upgrade my 2001 and 2003 with a newer bed, what year is a direct fit, and if other years fit with adjustment or mod, please let me know.

What year seats will fit my 2001 and 2003?

I also want to know what parts interchange as far as Doors and interior door parts/wire plugs on door fitment to cab harness for power mirrors, locks, windows etc. Please include what year doors will fr the cab and what year electronics are directly connected or have to be soldered or modified to work. If anyone is aware of aftermarket plugs that avoid splicing and work as an adapter, please let me know.

All cabs (including doors) and beds are the same from 99-16. The 11-16 beds have a different wheel arch.

The door panels can be changed over to newer ones. There is a few threads around on wiring them up.

I'm pretty sure the seats are the same from 99-16. You might have to drill a hole here or there.

Looking here because there’s a 7.3L is in our 2000 Excursion so ‘no comment’ on most of your questions; but on the subject of a Bed Replacement in your 2003, I have something to say. 7 yrs ago I temporarily switched out my 2002 RAM 2500 5.9L 4x4 Ext. Cab for my son’s BMW to have its Windshield replaced. Normally, he exhibits excellent judgement as well as common sense (10 yrs Military, Trained Chopper Pilot, MBA). The RAM 4x4 was/is not Lifted, but it’s on the tall side and it had a Stock 16” Alloys, and Headache Rack. He was hurried because he had an early flight out of GW Bush International outside of Houston. Well....., I don’t know why he tried to get into the Low Parking Garage, but that Stock 4x4 Truck got jammed tight under one of the low
Cement Joists supporting the next Parking Level with the Headache Rack bent back and the Pickup Truck Bed swelled out on both sides. He had to deflate the tires to get free.....and missed that Flight which left me needing to replace the Pickup Truck Bed as well as to endure a ‘drive of shame as I drove this ‘obviously damaged by a dumbass move’ back to Oklahoma. Finally, (and this is my point) while searching for a replacement Pickup Bed, my friend and I discussed the option of going with a Flatbed. This was what I chose and with Tool Boxes, Gooseneck and an Integral Headache Rack it was still less expensive than a used replacement Pickup Bed that would also require an Auto Body Shop’s services for Paint and Body Repairs. Also, the Flatbed provides better visibility,increased utility (fits 2 ATVs) and in this ‘old man’s opinion’ looks better. If I ever have to buy another Pickup, it WILL be a FLATBED! Good luck.
