The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area General Truck Talk 55-56 frame dimensions ( illustration)

Anyone have a diagram of the 55-56 (TF) frame dimensions. I saw a link before (don't remember where)that had the assembly manual on it to use as long as you didn't print for resale. Any help.

I've never seen any of the TF assembly manual online, but if you can be more specific on what measuremnets you need for what model I could prolly scan the page for ya - there's many pages, one or more for each model

This was in my 56 resto pack:
http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2412127/3

1956, 3100, stepside,
red58, I'm looking for length (114"??)front to back and corner to diagnal corner to check for squareness.
fredoly, Thanks, which resto pack and where did you get it???

Try this first: http://www.stovebolt.com/techtips/GMRestoPak.htm

3100 overall length =178.050 [WB = 114" CtoC of axles or mid points of spring hangers]
width of frame rails at rad mount brackets CtoC = 39.940, front width outside = 34 ... width at back CtoC = 31.759, and 33.719 outside

doesn't have the diagonals, but whatever measurement you get one diagonal should = the other or it's wracked .... prolly can be off up to an inch or so with no problem
