I think he means since it's a stepside, not a SWB.

67CHIP72 · 06-30-2008, 09:17 PM

Ah yes, the SHORT WIDE BED vs SHORT WHEEL BASE debate.

67_C-30 · 06-30-2008, 10:31 PM

Oh boy, here we go!!!

Let's just say for arguement's sake SWB meant Short Wide Bed. What would be the correct abbreviation for a Short Wheel Base stepside truck?

SNB - Short Narrow Bed
SSB - Short Step Bed
SNWB- Short Not Wide Bed
SLB - Short Little Bed
SHATCB- Short Has Annoying Tailgate Chains Bed
SMGDFB- Short Makes Good Dually Fenders Bed
SNWAMAASWB- Short Not Worth As Much As A Short Wide Bed

***Running from the stepside fans!***

HoupPhotography · 06-30-2008, 10:51 PM

Isn't the '63 a members truck? It seems like I remember seeing that truck in the "post your ride" thread.

bad6772 · 06-30-2008, 11:00 PM

I think it is....?

lol... nice.

Short wheel Base with a step bed..... sorry for any confusion. I figured the pics would help for the

people

Musclerodz · 07-01-2008, 10:58 AM

Sorry if I offended anyone with thin skin.

"S" implies short either way, ergo short wheel base

"W" for wide

"N" for narrow

"L" for long

"B" for bed.

**Classic Heartbeat** · 07-01-2008, 11:28 AM

S = Short

W = Wheel

B = Base

Then you have stepside beds or fleetside beeds. Anyone ever heard of a short stepside bed called a SSB? (for short stepside bed)

Go ask your local GM dealer what SWB means in his parts book. I'm betting it wont have anything to do with the width of the bed

Let us know his response

Musclerodz · 07-02-2008, 02:07 AM

How do you abreviate a Longhorn? ELWB for "extra" long?

I think I wil go find another thread to stir the pot a little.
