No i have not done the same conversion, but it is from readily available wheel base specs and mathematics.


CC shortbed is 150" WB and Supercab LB is 155".

The beds are the same after the rear wheels so you section out the frame between back of cab and front of rear tires.

JP3 just did this in his thread....$500 F250.

Hope I didn't sound like a jackass. I was actually hoping you had done it, and had pics for mre reference. I knew it was close to 6" when we put them side by side. But now 5" is an exact number we can work with. Thanks. I never did ever find the CL posting of your truck for sale in Los Angeles.

Not mine. Read something on this truck once. I believe used a supercab longbed frame and then shortened a longbed to fit. Notice the length of the bed in front of the wheel well. Name:  mediumbedcrew_zps2cee51d7.jpg
