yes. I want it shorter than a crew cab short bed. I want it to be the overall length of a LWB truck. It would only have about a foot in front of the wheel wells and behind.
A crew cab is just too long. A LWB is just about right. Wife would have a hard time driving a truck that long. If I have to convert a 2wd frame to 4wd, no big deal. I can do that.
I am gonna piece together from threads on here and maybe be able to explain myself better.
I grabbed these out of the cab on a bronco frame thread.
If I just slap a crew onto a LWB, it will look like this extended cab on a SWB. the bed looks like crap.
If I used a LWB or camper special frame then the bed would wind up looking like this cab on a Bronco frame.
