Justinelect - An EC that I had worked for in the past, currently has a Royal. He said he'd never buy one again. He has had at least two Knapheide bodies in the last eleven years, and he prefers them over the Royal.
As far as a 4" longer body than the 96", there isn't such a thing. The next size is the 108". It is 4" longer between the cab and the axle, and 8" longer between the axle and the rear. I personally like the 96" body the best. Especially when my truck has the extra cab.
*edit - Do you happen to have all of the option numbers that you ordered with the body? I'm also ordering the body sans bumper. I may have mentioned this before, but I can't stand the standard utility body bumpers. Any longer and they could be used as a platform off of the back of a dive boat. I'll make, or have made, my own.
