I'm not going to run out and get measurements right now because it's dark, but Zach is making his 81" long and that gives about 2" on each end.

Lucky for you, I am bored as heck.

On a gen 2 (which, considering the design hasn't changed much, I am guessing it's the same), it is about 8 feet (96 inches) from edge of wheel well to edge of wheel well.
