If you really want to right you should center cab then center box, see what you have between cab and box you will want to keep this at least 1.5 inches, make sure you square off box to cab, looks will be mean more than what your tape measure says here, now sutract the 1.5 from total distance between cab and box, remove box and cut this amount out of frame on each side, this is a lot easer to do than it sounds.
If you have never done this get some help, you will still have to shorten drive shaft but if you were to move rear end forward you would also have to do, this takes me about 2 hrs to, moving rear end forward drilling and cutting those factory rivets bolting everthing else together thats an all day job on your knees and back, if your worried about splice dont be, done right this will be the strongest part of frame.
