How much longer is a first gen long bed than first gen short bed? Thanks, Dean

 

103 and 109. google

 

i cut 16 inches out of my 82 longbed and now it's 6ft

 

my short bed was 6 ft

 

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
