Good callout Jason.
We dropped the cab onto the frame to check placement and ride height. Because of the shape of the fender cutout, as you lower the ride height the wheel needs to move forward to look centered. You can see what I"m referring to in this photo.
But, because we are making a custom bed I think we can move the cab back a touch to center the wheel. Then we can place the rear fenders where we want them on the bedsides and just shorten the steps as needed.
So, for anyone reading along, Jason56 is correct. 113" wheel base will be short if you are planing to use stock bed sides.
