yea,, if i cant find a replacement for it i am just gonna tear it down and weld it all back together,,,, but id really like to find another to stick on because it has some rot where it goes up to the bed mount

you need that mount from another short box, the long box frame bends behind the cab where the short box frame the bend is under the cab so the mount is different.

well you could cut off that part of the mount and weld it on to the old i guess, just need to plate and gusset it, just would not be as simple as using a whole mount from a short box

How are your fabrication skills? A lot of people do different things but I would try to make it as factory as possible.

What I would do is find a truck in the junk yard with a bad frame and cut that section of frame. Take it home and carefully with a die grinder cut out the weld on the replacement and the current frame. Then weld the new one in.

That's what i figured i was gonna end up doing..
