I've had the long wheelbase frame for mine for about 20 years and four moves and have had lots of time to measure things.

If I manage to get the trans in and hooked up in the box with wheels and get the engine either repaired or swapped in the 71 GMC I'll be able to actually work on the 48 again.

My ongoing truck projects:
48 Chev 3100 that will run a 292 Six.
71 GMC 2500 that is getting a Cad 500 transplant.
77 C 30 dualie, 454, 4 speed with a 10 foot flatbed and hoist. It does the heavy work and hauls the projects around.
