What are you building, that needs a frame that long ?
You're going to have frame "sagging" issues, unless properly supported.

Thanks to all how looked in. I know you guys can build trucks to look exactly like the real thing, as well as mpdify extensive kits so good. But the nice thing about modeling is that you can build anything you like, even if it doesn,t work in the real world. So , this is just something i had in my head. Hope you injoy. ;D
