did some measuring on the 85 swb frame and it is 117.5 inches, then mesured a 69 swb and its 115, how come i hear that the 85 frame is 4.5 inches longer when it is really about 2.5?? does an inch need to be cut off each end? or 2 on either end? has anyone done this before? like a 67-72 on a newer frame? any info at all would be sweet

thanks
derek
