    Right off the original 1964 Ford truck brochure:

    Wheelbase :: 114" (6.5' bed) : 128" (8' bed)


    I also thought you might find this little diagram helpful.

    I am getting ready to pick up a 1965 swb f100 and 1964 LWB 4x4, really wanting to put my 65 body on the 4x4 chassis. About how of the frame did you have to cut out ? did you have to remove the cab?
    We have the tools to cut and weld jus couldnt find any real information for Fords mostly Chevy.
    The 65 is solid with patina.
    Thanks,
    Tony
