K 4X4 E v8 1 1/2 ton 4 cab with (unspecified) bed 1 71 Z Fremont (cali, not ohio) 638758 the _38758th built on that line at that plant. I've seen documentation that said if there were 2 assembly lines, one would start at 1xxxxxx, and the second would start at 8xxxxx... then I've seen other docuimentation that said the second line would start at 5xxxxx. |

Randy,no way to tell by the VIN whether it was a short bed.However,if it had a 3/4 ton vin and they claimed it was a shortbed,you'd know they were lying.If it has the glovebox you should be able to tell by looking at the wheel base listed in there.

model number will tell us LWB/SWB, and also what bed was there originally too.
