The 133" Cab & Chassis (flatbed) uses the exact same frame as the Longhorn. The C&C rear axle is 4" narrower than the single wheel axle putting the tires real close to the leaf springs and requiring the tubs to be widened. I imagine tire size plays along with just how much the tires either tucks in or stick out slightly. I'm in tbe process of doing this on a 4x4.
