100-105 seems to be the target wheel base, alot of 104's out there... and alot of rig's i see and people i've asked are all in the mid 70's outside to outside...

i'm 104 3/8 and 75 1/2 :D

thanks guys, mine will be a bit short then at 94-95" and possably a bit narrow as well, but that will depend on the offset I get in the rims, so there is some adjustment there yet. I may stretch it to 100" but thats getting awfully long for some of the trails here in Michigan. (ok so I have a crazy idea that I may want to compete someday :eek: )
thanks:D

100" wheelbase tight for trail rig. I can see being to wide but not 100" being to long. Just my .02
I like the 100-106" range.
