Hey guys I need the measurements of a short fleet bed:
1)leading edge of the bed to the center of the wheelwell.
2)rear of bed to the center of the wheelwell.
Thanks.

thanks joe, just what I needed, I am using them for my radical 60 build, and I am going to end up with a wierd bed length.

If you get a chance I could also use the measurement from the back door jamb to the center of the rear axle on a shorty...
thanks , jon

you want from the actual jamb, or from the door edge?

I got 46" from the outside of the jamb, the place where the door and cab meet on the outside of the body. kinda sounds like jibberish, let me know if it isn't clear to ya.
my rear axle is nowhere near centered in the wheel openings, but I believe that is how they all are.

That's perfect, I just needed a ballpark figure, I am kinda making it up as I go along on my build.
Thanks!
