Maybe my sense of scale is way off, but that looks like a really short 26" cut out of that COE Ron.




The frame started out at 132" wheelbase and I was going to take it down to 100" but my son talked me into keeping it a little longer so I want to 106" that will give me a 8ft bed.

the way I cut the frame worked out pretty cool,

I cut and bent the original factory seam and then cut out the 26" and put the rear frame section back into the stepped down front section and took my measurements and weld it back up just like original

then bent the inside piece back in and welded them.

it worked out great and looks stock Ron...
