Thanks, Jim. | | | | | Joined: Aug 2008 Posts: 116 Shop Shark | | Shop Shark Joined: Aug 2008 Posts: 116 | Hummmmm...According to the chart, my 4400 would have a 161" wheelbase. I haven't measured it, but that's about what it looks like. I just laid a 16' bed on it and it looks too long for the wheelbase. Anybody got thoughts?

A 12 body uses an 84" CA. Dump bodies use shorter CA's. | | |
