Are you looking for a different frame with more modern equipment or looking for finding a replacement cab/bed for the frame you have?

Forum search resuts fof 4x4 frame

'57 Frame width according to my Shop Manual is 34" If your truck is a short bed it should have a wheelbase of 110" and a long bed would have a 118" wheelbase.
I searched the forum for "4x4 frame" and here are a few of the links that seem to pertain to your question. Good luck and I hope this helps.
