Overlap between engine, chassis and coach width
Yahoo Message Number: 48545
Sorry if this has been covered but I am not finding it.  Does anyone know which years (96, 97, 98...), if any, there was an overlap which included the V-10, the E450 chassis, and when the coach width for the 26.5 mid bath models was still 96"?

Thanks,

I don't know about all of the LD's of this period, but our '97 MB built on a '96 Super Duty chassis and sold in about October '96 is the V-10 with the wider body. The Super Duty Chassis is was later rebadged as the E450. Mary

Thanks, The following snip is from the file "LD Changes.txt" ..1996..............a few E350 Super Duty 14,000 GVWR w/ 460V8 ..1996 to 2004......Ford E450 chassis with V10 So this plus the previous post about the super duty unit being the wider body I would guess then that when they switched the chassis the switched the width?
