I know the commonly quoted figures are 16" in front and 4" in the rear but looking at chassis diagrams is looks like 16.25" and 3.75" roughly?
Getting ready to section this bed and these spots I picked are where it won't interfere with bracing underneath. A crossmember gets eliminated up front but I believe that is normal.
I plan to be under my truck this weekend (replacing brake lines), so I'll try to get some good pics of the underside while I've got Ole Blue up on Jack stands (sadly, no garage with a lift available to me... Not even a usable garage, I'll be using my driveway).
If no one else has posted what you need before then, I'll try to post some good pics for you. If you have specific areas you need to see, let me know. I'm guessing you mainly want to see what things look like near where your cuts will be?
Yes! You are the man. I believe long bed and short bed are identical in the area near the fender wells. I'm mainly looking for the areas outside of that where I'll be chopping.
I'll take a lot of pics and video next week when I chop, hopefully we can make this a helpful thread for others doing the same. Shortbed bumps are like hen's teeth around here
Ignore the horizontal line above, my son wanted to make it an "h". It appears the shortbed only has two crossmembers at either end of the fender well so I will make my cuts to eliminate the two extra longbed crossmembers. The tape is just roughly laid out for now. I plan on chopping it tomorrow or next week
