Stupid question

I should have my A$$ whipped for not knowing this but, what is the wheelbase of a short bed standard cab? I gotta cut the frame down & don't wanna guess at it. Let the ridiculing begin

Only stupid question is the one not asked, unless you count the one asked when it's too late!

Stupid question

you are doing exactly what i would like to do to my '65- the old 'turn it into a shortbed' trick! could you PLEASE let me know your cutting measurements- ie where on the frame, etc-or post pics? my concern was pretty much bed mounts and such, but what are you doing about the driveshaft? and btw, getting rid of the e-brake extension cables would be a blessing for me! any help would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!
