you have to go to the used cars section then fill in the description of your vehicle, then when it gets to the page that tells you how much it costs, theirs a button on the left hand of the page that says specifications and after that you click on technical specs

I recall 42" or 47" from outside frame to outside frame. Was in the process of swapping a
HD D70 axle into a 87 F150 frame for a woods truck but didn't due to $$$

Ok, right above the rear axle, the frame is 38" wide from outside to outside, 42" from spring mount inner edge to same on rear axle.

Did not mesure the front as I had to fight off some fire ants.....
