Front Frame Width 87 Chevy PU
Hoping somebody can tell me what the front frame width is for the 73-87 Chevy PU. I am looking for the outside to outside front frame width.
If someone has that number handy, would greatly appreciate it. Thanks Last edited by slylark; 03-11-2007 at 05:49 PM. |

Re: Front Frame Width 87 Chevy PU
Where exactly do you need the measurements taken from? Frame horns? Front suspension crossmember?

Re: Front Frame Width 87 Chevy PU
I did find this page from searching the archive:
http://www.chuckschevytruckpages.com/framespecs.html I am looking for the width at the front crossmember. Looks like item "V" is close but measures from the inside of the frame outer rail. I would guess that the frame rail is made of 3/16" thick steel so a rough guess would put the width of the frame at the front crossmember as 28 3/8". Does that sound reasonable? |

Re: Front Frame Width 87 Chevy PU
I measured my front rails & it was 28 1/4" outside to outside & just under that on the inside of the rail to inside of the other.
