In my boredom waiting for my chemical attack to be completed before I launch another napalm attack on the spring pins, I busted out a tape measure. Maybe a mistake.
Based on FSM, my diagonals aren’t bad, worst is diagonal C which is approx. 1/2” off (0.23” is max suggested by FSM). For 55 yrs old not bad I guess. I’m a wee bit older and at least that much shorter than years ago.
But I think my passenger side is pushed in about a 1/2”. Hard to take pics but the measurements show some deviations (if you can read my scribbling) and the last two pics show a line along the frame top that should fall similarly for each side, but passenger side is definitely 1/2” narrower. All the frame body mounts match fairly closely to the cab body mounts, so I’ll probably ignore all of this anyhow.
