Measurement Request

[44Dan44]

Can someone please provide me with a measurement? As seen in photos, need a crew cab from front of bed to the rear of the cab marker lights.

Have an MC so can't help, but wanted you to know your poll cracked me up.

Mine seems to be at least 61". I have a Leer cap so hard to measure the front of the bed exactly.
I think you are good to go with 61-62" unless you need to be precise

HaHa, glad to hear it. Sometimes humor doesn't come across as intended on the internet.

I have a 2022 1500 loaner with a dented RF fender I could measure for you.

I'd have to install the cab lights first. Not sure the dealer would appreciate it.

Thank you! No, precision is not necessary in this case. I am looking at ladder racks and the one I'm leaning towards most heavily(US Rack, Wildcatter or Atlas models) is offered in 4ft, 5ft, and 6ft cab over-hang options. I think it will look best slightly behind the clearance lights. This one for example goes a bit beyond and I don't want that.

Oh yeah, don't forget your shark fin!

P.S. That 5th gen cab is LONG.

My grandson is still stuck there in his car seat since Thursday as I cannot reach the buckle from the driver seat to loose him like I can in my HD.

I should probably bring him some water.

Poll addition noted lol

Yes! Best I can tell, as long as I aim for slightly behind marker lights, I should be good on the fin, including height of it.

Go with the 5 ft it will look the best id say the 4ft may look odd being that short on the long cab

I agree, I believe this example to be a 4ft, too short.

The bed rails look a little goofy they should be shorter lol

I do not care for that look either, it’s a custom mixmosh of an Atlas and a Wildcatter. Just showing it for over-cab length comparison.
