This new kit takes the guess work out of cutting and shortening a longbed F100 frame. What would normally take days by an expert fabricator can now be accomplished in an afternoon with a drill, a saw and basic hand tools. The kit comes with a template used for drilling and cutting the frame. A strong, laser-cut C-channel is provided to reattach the shortened frame rails. Hardware is included to bolt together the frame sections, but welding is recommended to ensure long-term structural rigidity. The template includes instructions on how to modify the rear of the frame for mounting a bumper.
