68 frame cut
I'm almost ready to cut my highboy 67 frame down to the shortbed chassis I know it's 16 inches that needs to be cut out but I was wondering if anyone knows if it has to be a certain spot behind the cab to start the cut or anywhere between it and the axle I know it's suppose to be on the straight part of frame

Ok so you cut out 16 inches like that? I just wondering where to start the cut like does it matter if it's three inches behind the cab mount or 6 inches or etc. I know it has to be on the long straight run just making sure it don't matter where I start the cut

I'm not seeing anything like you're talking about. What exactly is the thing you click on?

The very first of the four stickies contains various information related to this and was originally put there by HIO Silver.
This is the very first of the four stickys listed at the top of this forum. The information on this should be found in this body if information.

Well I did try those initially but saw nothing in there relating to the original posters' question of frame cutting.
