Just curious? Why do you ask. What are you trying to accomplish. A longer frame comes with a long bed, not just overhanging body. BTW long beds bobbed to standard are the best ones around IMO!

Thinking about shortening it up behind the rear wheels. I don't want to go real short, just a little off the back. The bed is about a foot ( I haven't measured it yet) longer than the frame. Thanks, Dean

i couldn't find pics of it but either on YT or Pirate someone had done a front bed bob on a long Bed framed truck and had a cool spare tire mount, gas can and tool box mounted between the cab and the bed. It was pretty cool and functional
