Flatbed length - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**kwmech** · 06-01-2005, 10:58 PM

Decissions-descissions, I've got a 69 GMC that used to be a class B motorhome, 155'' wheel base--14k rating with the 19.5 wheels. I changed back to the 16s. Anyways the frame is hella long behind the cab--almost 11 feet. (10'-11'') I am thinking about putting a flatbed on it. I could chop about 9'' off the frame, which would give me a 10' bed or add 15 to give me a 12'. Originally I was looking for a slide deck but cannot find one short enough. I'm kinda leaning towards the chop off (truck is large enough with the duals to begin with). Any thoughts?
