MB Width Dimensions April 29, 2021, 01:55:26 pm Does anyone know the width of the later model MB’s? I need to know the center-to-center width measurement for the front tires and rear duallies. Thanks!
Re: MB Width Dimensions Reply #1 – April 29, 2021, 05:55:38 pm I think our 2002 was 102" not including the mirrors or awning for the body. Not sure which tire measurements you want.Art

And Greg, you have a Lazy Daze, don't you have a tape measure? Steve, no worries, and stay inside and keep dry! Trying to do some leveling of my parking area at home so I don’t have to drive up on blocks which will make getting ready for a trip easier. The LD is parked in storage right now and I'm too lazy to drive 15 miles to town to take the measurement. 1 Likes

Re: MB Width Dimensions Reply #9 – April 30, 2021, 06:44:38 am For those who may not have run across it yet, Ford hosts a number of useful documents at its Body Builder Advisory Service (BBAS) - Publications Web site, link here. You use the "SHOW MORE" button to reveal information for chassis older than the current model year.Body Builders Layout Book (BBLB) for 2017 E-Series chassis is hereNote 1: Greg's LD may be built on a 2016 chassis.Note 2: See pages 12 and 14 for distance-between-tire-center dimensions "FW" and "RW"In the same BBLB list there is one for electrical wiring. A link to the 2017 BBLB Electrical Wiring section is here.Note: The 2015 Electrical Wiring section (link here) has more information than the 2017. I wonder where the diagrams went?Similar helpful information is available under "Specifications" on the BBAS Publications page. Link for the 2017 E-Series chassis is here.Mark H. 1 Likes
Re: MB Width Dimensions Reply #10 – April 30, 2021, 03:45:21 pm Mark, thanks for that document; I had forgotten it existed. I can get the measurement from there so never mind, Tedeboy!The chassis has a manufacture date of Sept. 2016 so not sure what that makes it. 1 Likes

I doubt there has been any changes to the width of the axles and wheels since Ford introduced the wide-body chassis in the late 1990s for the 27’ and 31’ models. The shorter, 23.5’ models didn't get the wide body chassis until 2003.Larry 1 Likes
