I need to know how long the frame is on a LWB. My truck is a 64. I didn't measure my frame before I cut it up. but I know how long my back half needed to be. I just want to make sure that I'm getting it right.

I know I know I know. Measure 8 times cut once.

Are you wanting a total length from front to back?

ruffrida2005 · 11-15-2009, 01:32 AM

yes, from the frame horns to the back.

ruffrida2005 · 11-15-2009, 10:23 PM

Anyone help.

I can get a measurement for you tomorrow if someone else doesn't beat me to it.

thanks a lot man. I'm getting excited to get my new backhalf welded in. But it wont be till this weekend. got to get some more gas for the welder.

OK, I've got a couple measurements for you. The measurement from the back of the frame to the farthest forward tip of the front frame horn is 200 5/16"
I also measured from the back side of the rear cab mount bracket on the frame, rearward to the end of the frame and that measurement is 96 9/16"

I hope that is the info you were looking for. If not let me know and I'll measure some more.
