SWB vs LWB?

[updated:LAST EDITED ON 10-May-02 AT 08:48 AM (EST)]What do SWB and LWB mean? Also how do I figure out which one I have?

I have a 1991 f-150 XLT Lariat w/ two gas tanks(trying to figure out how much my first gas tank holds)

SWB=Short Wheel Base ; LWB=Long Wheel Base. Looks kinda like your truck is a LWB judging from your pictures.

Look at the bed.

If there are three stake holes on each side, LWB.

Two stake holes on each side, SWB.
