Pete 378 vs. 378 Long hauler difference in Wheelbase?

[hooknladderno1]

Hi Guys,

Is there a difference in the wheelbase between the two kits, and if so - what is that difference? I had seen a members built up kit that looked like the perfect length for a tanker conversion project. Recently traded for what I thought was the Longhauler kit. It appears from photos that the sleeper cab is much longer on the Longhauler kit and thus a longer frame. Any other differences? Thanks!

I don't have the Longhauler kit to compare frames but that kit is the 378 kit with the sleeper from the 377. It also has a pic of a 379 on the box, which obviously it isn't.

I've built the 378 kit and just made a longhauler out of it a long time ago, before they offered the long hauler kit and I can tell you there is no difference in the frame length....Italeri is to lazy (Well, maybe not Lazy, but cheap comes to mind) to retool anything, so rest assured, there ain't....
