Like this idea but showing all the details with all measurements would have made it alot more interesting.

I just made it a short vid showing the basics. Most of my stuff is more for laughs and entertainment than information.

Great video, question...how did you do with driveshaft, fuel and brake lines? Thanks

@shedman7323 3 жыл бұрын

The fuel and brake lines were easy enough to shorten... the drive shaft I cut the yoke off of the rear by removing the weld. Shortened and welded it back together. A lathe is the best way to go on that job but it can be done by hand.

how about the drive shaft

Same thing, cut and weld back together.

I noticed you separated the bed floor from front & sides instead of sectioning out 16". How is the floor attached?

@shedman7323 2 жыл бұрын

Spot welds. I figured that was easier than welding the across the entire bed floor. Thanks for watching!

How many inches would you take off the back? 4?

@shedman7323 2 жыл бұрын

I didn’t take any off of the back. I think it would be best to have an actual SWB bed before I would go to that much trouble.

Hey Shed Man, did you ever end up selling this thing?

@shedman7323 2 жыл бұрын

Yes, I did. It got t-boned while parked shortly after.

@dbc105 Жыл бұрын

Any chance you know if a long bed and short bed have the same amount of rear over hang? The finished pics look as though the proportions work out ok.

@shedman7323 Жыл бұрын

No, you have to cut the rear as well to fit a factory size bed. It’s about 6” difference as I recall. This is more an altered wheel base than true short bed.

@paulloranger545 7 ай бұрын

Rear is 4 inches to make the bed 6 . 5 feet overall

Could you just purchase a short box if you weren't confident in you body work.

@gordhammond7105 2 жыл бұрын

Ruining a good old truck. What advantage is there to making it shorter. I have a short box I wouldn't mind seeing turned into a longbox.

@shedman7323 2 жыл бұрын

Smaller turning radius and in some folks opinion, better, more sporty looking. Its a pretty popular modification with the Chevy truck crowd! I just did it for the heck of it!
