nutty midnight question
so, what kinda wheelbase would one get if they bobbed a crewcab to bring the rear wheels right up behind the cab?

my insurance might just cover my lost parts and it might be better to have seperate trail and work rigs

Down in the off road forum there is a guy in Alaska that did bob a crew cab for that exact reason.

Not sure, but I am thinking it was an IDI diesel as well.

Now if I could think of his user name.

it just struck me though, could one just use a shortbed frame with the crew cab cab and a short flatbed?
