Ofcourse ya can......
You can anything with a NISSAN
Mounts etc will all line up, the only one that may be a headace is the center rear cab mount ( similar to the mounts you can see in the rear wheel arches.... )
If you choses to use the mount ( more of a safety / sheer mount anyway ) you may need to get the cross member from the ute chassis and weld it in...........
Personally get the cross member any way ...... they make excelent trackbar mounts,
But then again thats because its a NISSAN
Only major issue you will have is driver room, if your a larger than the std bloke then dont expect that the seat will go too far back to accomindate ya frame, high backed seats may be a thing of the past.
