SWB or LWB

I assume this truck is a long wheel base truck? Looks like the member hasn't posted since 2010. I like to look of his flatbed and was wanting to confirm the LWB or SWB for sure. Might go that route temporarily.

That looks like a short wheel base.

Re: SWB or LWB

it seems short but it's a lwb. it's always deceiving without the bed. longbeds have about the same length gap from back of cab to front of rear wheel as the door length. regardless of the angle of the pic it should be relative.

Re: SWB or LWB

it's a K/20, so 127" WB. The custom bed may be a bit shy of 8', but lifted w/big tires makes a truck look shorter, as well as having less bulk (w/o pickup bed) using a flatbed
