Try the projects and builds section of the forum. Rokcrln did a project Lo buk that he shortened. He did an excellent job of documenting the mod.

Edit: Found it for ya!

... to the board.

You will find quite a bit of information on here about it. You will also find info about shortening the bed. Here is another link:

This is the method I used to shorten my '70 LWB frame and it worked out great. If you are not an experienced welder find someone who is to do the welding for you. I will see if I can find the thread on shortening the bed but no guarantees on that.
