Re: Longhorn cut down to short box
I’m sure someone has but can’t for the life of me imagine why someone would. That longhorn is a real truck, built to work its butt off day in and day out.

Re: Longhorn cut down to short box
I've never done it, nor seen it done.. I wouldn't advise doing it for two reasons -- (1) bad idea, and (2) bad idea... OK 3 reasons.. (3) As Taskforce said -- It's a real truck, built to work, not parked in a space at some car show...

Re: Longhorn cut down to short box
A Longhorn has a 1T frame. It rides hard already, unless loaded. Shorter would be worse, and what would a C-notch look like? I have so many questions about why.

If you have InstaGram reach out to @classic_chev, he does a lot of boxside shortening and may be able to help you. He’s also a member here, but for the life of me i can’t remember his handle.

Re: Longhorn cut down to short box
all i could say , if you want a short bed
sell the truck and buy a short bed at where you start from not to many longhorn(s) out there . . .
