Default cab 12 measurement needed

I forgot, when at Kingaroy to check the chassis width of a cab 12. I need to know if the width overall of the front is the same as the back?

thanks in advance
Cliff

Default Chassis

On Fords, the chassis dimensions are the same irrespective of the Cab fitted. In fact they have the holes pre-drilled to take either style cab.
The frame narrows between the rear of the front spring and the front mount of the step. The forward part of the frame measures 32 inches between the outside faces of the frame, and the rear part behind the step measures 34 inches between outside faces of the frame, as Jeff mentioned.

thank you very very much guys. I am trying to scratch build a F60L chassis and that (along with the pic) helps me a lot.

thanks again
