Anyone have a flatfender jeep with a Kelly half cab ?
Can be mounted or not. I need a dimension. Maximum distance of roof front to rear less the rear rain gutter. ( 36” on my Koenig half cab) Or if it’s mounted then measure the Jeeps bed length from back edge of Jeep to the cab. (25-1/2” on my Koenig half cab)

I couldn’t wait for an answer because I am reconsidering if I might still tackle a 3A pickup using a 6’ Bantam bed.
So I dug out my NOS Kelly half cab from long term storage. Complete and still in it’s original box. Looks like it extends back 1-3/4” further than the Koenig half cab. So best I can guess is stretching the frame out from 80” to about a 116” wheelbase. That should be easy to do since I have 2 extra and 2 partial frames.
