Re: bed length ?
Wow that is short. What is your wheelbase?

Re: bed length ?
Just measured my LWB at the same points you measured yours. Mine is 96" (8 feet on the nose).
When people cut a LWB to a SWB, they cut 12" out in front of the wheel well and 8" behind. Therefore, a standard SWB would be 76" when measured where you took your measurements. Therefore, you have the elusive super short bed.
