    The "bob it" comment was obviously a joke, you would lose bed space and still have the long wheel base so it would be pointless.

    He WANTS a long bed.
    He found a short bed and wants to put a long bed on it.

    It's the wife's T4R so it's stock
    I disagree... The thread title is Longbed to Shortbed conversion... Additionally he indicates that he found a truck with everything he wants EXCEPT a short bed, meaning it has a long bed.

    This says to me he wants a longbed. Although, the title says LB to SB :confused: Both can be done, but its spendy. Guys do long bed conversions on dodge mega cabs all the time.

    Ya... I can see how it can be read either way.

    Regardless, sure... with enough money, anything can be done.

    But it's going to require cutting and lengthening or shortening the frame, and changing the driveshaft.

    Want a short bed for more clearance just to clear things up, not sure what "bob" it means but I think I'll hold out for a SB and put the extra money towards some mods:D

    Do you want to be seen driving this around your town?? Your probably a smart guy, but don't go selling yourself as a dumbfuck by driving a shortbed double cab.


    Get a good night's rest and rethink your decision.
