Re: to make a long bed a short bed?

My thread has some details, but not the step by step that the links above have. Capn's right, you have to cut 12" out of the bed and frame in front of the rear wheels and 8" out of the bed and frame in the rear to make it a stock length short bed. The wheel arches are 3" wider but I'm leaving mine exactly like they are. I think it looks great. On short beds there's no middle stake pocket either. I filled mine and I think the guys on the "Trucks" show should have done the same.
