I just bought a 98 frontier XE standard cab 4wd. I need to replace the bed and I wanted to know if a bed from the king cab, a 2wd model, or a newer model will bolt up.

King cab bed will not fit. Nissan stopped making the standard cab in 2002 but you can use them up to 2002.

Is there any difference between 2wd and 4wd model beds?

only difference between 2wd and 4wd beds is the provision for the fender flares. The 2wd beds won't have them. Otherwise they'll bolt right up. 6 bolts.

The king cab bed is about 3" shorter than the reg cab bed and the gap would be between the cab and bed.
