dgrinnan 'Bolter D Joined: Jan 2016 Posts: 1,101 Northern Kentucky	Has anyone on here shortened a 1 ton. I am looking at a 1 ton with a 9 foot bed. I understand the sheet metal of the box but is there a logical place to shorten the frame? How much did you shorten it? What did you do about drive shaft? Dave from Northern Kentucky My 54 3100
