Anyone close to FL panhandle that wants to stretch a frame?

I have already switched contractors with ScottyB's unit so I should be good to go

Good luck, If i was closer, I'd help you out. Just finishing up my limo build. It's been fun

I appreciate it... i have commented a couple of time on how truly impressed i was with your build. Keep up the great work

The kit includes an insert that slides into the frame rails front and rear about 4-5 inches and also has braces that bolt to the bottom to add more strength. We also threw a few welds in there for good measure. Can you build one yes but with this kit and another person I believe I could do one in a weekend now no problem. My dealer guys can do one in a day.

I think the true basis of wanting to do it myself besides strength is length....I'm 6'7 and while I am more than comfortable with my standard golf cart/ room seems to be an issue in a standard shuttle. could I deal with it, Yes..... but if I am spending the money, I would prefer to have it more to my size. I know it will be a pain, but I have a cart to use and this can be a year long project for all I am concerned ..

Yes, I did mine the stock 28" extension and now i wish I would have went longer. I guess on my next one i'll do that. haha.

Agreed. The factory stretch seems a little short in the front..

I understand that this will bring in the next issue of having to fab rocker and floor pans and such , but I have access to that on a consistent basis. the welding is truly the only issue for me
