Minimum Single Cab Tray Length

[ben_bass69]

Whats the shortest length tray you can put on a single cab? I know standard length is 2400 or 2550, would the minimum length just be level with the tow bar?

[packeteer]

200-300 shorter than standard would be the go, unless you wanted to trim the chassis ends

[ben_bass69]

What's the legality with trimming the chassis? Need to be engineered?

[packeteer]

most likely. it is a structural change. not that I see any negative impacts

[ben_bass69]

What's the measurement from the rear of the cab to the rear of the chassis?

[Kizzzaaa]

Just had a quick measure, its roughly 2450 from the cab to the rear of the female tow hitch, but theres about 50-100mm cavity between the cab and the headboard so it all depends.

[ben_bass69]

Ah ok, thought it might be shorter than that...

[Kizzzaaa]

To the end of the chassis it would be maybe 150-200mm shorter but you would be stupid not to run a towbar or some sort of tow point at the back to protect from drop offs etc.

what are your plans for the ute mate?

[ben_bass69]

Haven't actually got a single cab yet, got a dual cab SR5 I'm thinking about selling to buy a single cab, plan to put a dog box at the back and still have room for a quad bike as well, just trying to figure out some dimensions...
