Distance outside to outside frames horns?

Post by REDONE »

From the outside of one frame rail behind the front bumper to the outside of the other I'm measuring 34" +/-.2". Anyone got the numbers or care to varify? I'm thinking building a super sweet bumper for my super sweet 8274 and starting to sketch something up. Looking for an idiot check.

Will go measure mine, brb.

Back, and admitted it was dark. I am seeing 34 1/4". But this is with the bumper on, not measuring the actual end of the frame with the bumper off. And it has been in a minor accident before 14 years ago (rear ended a civic). Although even the aluminum bumper was unharmed.

Thanks Brandon! It's tough measuring mine, too. It's buried in everything that my wife and I have thrown in the garage right before her parents came two weeks ago. That's enough to keep moving forward, It's just model space!
