I was wondering what the gap should be back of cab to the front panel of the bed? O-ya its a 55f1!Thanks !!!

 

Well I usually just fill that gap with fresh air!Now you know what to use in there, you just gotta get one of these guys to tell you how many inches of it you need between the cab and the bed......I kill me!!!

 

I looked at a lot of trucks when I was trying to figure that out. The distance seems to vary. My F-3 had a slice in the lower part of the cab caused by a bed rubbing against it at some time in the past. When I converted it to an F-1, I did not want a repeat of that so I re-drilled the bed mounting holes and moved it back about an inch so I have a gap of about 1 1/2 inches between the cab and bed.

 

Now, thats funny!

 

I have just over an inch between the cab and the bed top rail.
(all air from what I can see!)

Is that summer air or winter air?

 

Its texas! is there a difference?


Sam

 

you guys are SICK.......

 

Hot and humid in the Chesapeake Bay area....today it's a 1" airgap.

 

In Utah it can only be 1" of ambient air.

 

So air is air and the distance is 1"

 

There is supposed to be a gap?

 

Okay, now that all of these out-of-work comedians are done (you can see why they are out of work) center the rear tire in the wheel well and see what you have. I didn't like what I saw so I moved the corner post to the very front of the bed. It's all optical but it sure closed up the gap.

 

When you say corner post what do you mean? (Sorry if thats a stupid question)
