1987 body on a 1990 ctd???

I have got a 1990 ctd 4x4 and it has 300,000 + miles on it and the body shows it to. I have found a real nice 1987 dodge 2wd truck that is in good shape and I am thinking of buying it and switching the body over to the 1990??? I am wanting to know if any body has done this and what all should I expect. The main thing I am conserend about is the wireing?? I have also thoufgt that I would just switch every thing out on the wireing. So help me out on some advise. Thanks Justin
