need help......measurement
I'm currently out of town and unable to do it myself but I sincerely need a measurement of a regular cab front to back in order to know what size trailer to rent from uhaul so a friend can transport it.
Thank you in advance

I think he's going to get whatever will work. It's literally a bare cab

60 inches. I opened the hood and measured from the forward most part of the firewall, ran the tape along the bottom of the driver's side window, and eyeballed the far rear exterior wall of the cab. Measured a 75 Chevy, std cab, LWB.

Re: need help......measurement
An 8'x6' trailer worked fine for me.

Re: need help......measurement
It's been a long time since I had to move just a cab section, but I remember helping a buddy lift one with a strap, and it kinked the cab bad enough that he never used it. I don't remember if that cab was damaged in that area and we made it worse, or if the 73-87 cabs have to be lifted in a particular way to prevent serious damage.
Anyway, I thought I'd toss that out there, since it may (OR may not) be important to know.
