Hi I went to NAPA to buy a parking brake cable and they ask me if i had a narrow or wide wheelbase truck. I don't know i said.its a 2001 F350 diesel extended cab single rear wheel 142 inch wheelbase truck.then he said is it narrow or wide. so can you people help me out i need the intermediate cable.

 

As far as I know, our pickups only came in two widths, SRW and DRW. As to which one is narrower... I don't know.

 

The guy at napa maybe a moron... That only knows how to read the puter screen. You should have asked him if they were different part #'s for the part. Or just assume that since yours is SRW not dually that would be "narrow"

 

Yeh I'd say he's an Advance reject.(moron)

 

DRW are narrow and SRW are wider , if you measure both axles from brake to brake.

 

OK i will go back and see if he will give me the part #'s. if not the stealership will thanks.

 

Learn something new everyday, thank you.

 

It does ask for narrow or wide frame for the intermediate cable. LOL I'm still trying to figure out the difference.

all right now i have # to go by. thanks for helping me out.I will order the part today and tell you what one works for me.

 

I had the same problem, appears the f350s came from factory as full trucks or chassis cabs for box trucks. I dont remember which is which, but one had narrow,one had wide. the dealer was real helpful as to which is which.
