Wheelbase Question for '87-'91

Hello All,

My question is: Does an extended cab short bed ride on the same chassis as a standard cab long bed?

I am asking because I have been working on building up a F-250 4x4 chassis, haven't made it to the sheet metal, and now the wife wants an extended cab. . .

Thanks,
Nathan

If you tell your wife to get her own truck, she will likely get a nicer truck than you have. Trust me!
