Coe

any of you guys have Cabovers? I am interested in trying to figure out how short of a wheel base can be done to these trucks while remaining safe. I am interested into turning one into a trailer hauler and need the COE as compact as possible.

Re: Coe

I've seen some of those trucks that move mobile homes get pretty short. If you use a late model heavy duty frame you may have to widen the front fenders. I have a friend who built one using a Wonder Bread truck frame.
