need a measurement

We have no running boards and thinking about making our own. Since our truck is all apart I can't get a measurement for overall length so I can see if we can do it in our bending break. 55 f100

63" for the longest distance between the fenders. This distance includes the rubber mount on the front fender. I also have recessed running boards into my glass rear fenders but with the rubber mount included in the measurement it should be close to what the running board length needs to be. Maybe just call MF and ask how long the running boards are. I hope this helps????
