There was a Thread, either here or The other Ranger Forum, the subject was removing the rear of a short bed Extended Cab Ranger frame and adding a long bed, standard cab, frame rear section.

I don't remember the actual wheel base but it was a decent looking truck.

My only thought is the way the frames are connected, is based on the wheel base, if you extend a given frame, you need to adjust the mating method to handle the extra load in the middle of the frame, maybe even the spring perches; at least I would look at these things !

Here is the Thread, yes it is not from here but an interesting read:

https://www.ranger-forums.com/general-ford-ranger-discussion-15/ford-ranger-extended-cab-long-bed-build-159850/

Looks good and give you extra room where needed.
