ThaddeusW Posted February 17, 2012 Share Posted February 17, 2012 Hey everyone,I got my hands on a really nice drafting program here at work, called Graphite and its developed by Ashlar Vellum. I figure I can start designing a few things for the truck. I am not going to be home this weekend so I cant measure my trucks rails.I need to know the following for a B61:-Outside width between the rails-Rail height-Rail thickness-Rail flange widthExample frame rail cross section I want to make (ignore the hole pattern in the middle I was copying one from a Holland data sheet.)Example Pintle hook plate (I know you can buy these prefabbed but this is more of an exercise for me) Quote -Thad What America needs is less bull and more Bulldog!

Rob Posted February 18, 2012 Share Posted February 18, 2012 Aw come on nobody can give me a single dimension! Stop harassing Rob and Randy and post some numbers!Hi Tad, go back to my post about the 359 rails as there is a drawing in there with the dimensions of my B61. Most B model I've seen have a nine inch frame with a 3.25" flange top and bottom if single frame models. My B62SX has the same out dimensions but it double framed front to rear.Rob Quote Plodding along with no job nor practical application for my existence, but still trying to fix what's broke.
