Here is the Wheelbase

Looks good. Is that with the 106" wheelbase you were shooting for? Is all of the stretch in the rear in those pictures?

Thanks Man

I think it measures out to 107" but I will heave to check the final numbers...I ended up getting about 3-4" out fo the front so I didn't have to take it all out of the rear.

Really? You are going full hydro through, so you didn't have to mess with moving the steering box, correct?
