  • Will the Topline Bed Extender Fit on a 2011 Ford F-150 with Factory Plastic Drop In Bed Liner

  • The referenced Topline Fold Down Truck Bed Extender # BX4004-01 is a correct fit for your 2014 Ram 1500. Installation instructions are linked for you at right. Tools required include a drill and bits, hammer and center punch, 5/32-inch Allen wrench and a grease pencil. You will need to trim your bed liner in the spots on the tailgate where the installation brackets mount. Installation time is hard to predict. I would say that about an hour should suffice for a first-time installer but...

  • Will ATV Ramps Interfere with the Topline Bed Extender on a 2010 Chevrolet Silverado
  • The Topline Bed Extender, # BX4004-02, will likely interfere with ATV ramps if it is left on your tailgate. The good news is that this bed extender is easily removable. The bed extender attaches to the side brackets with two release pins. Simply remove the release pins to move the bed extender out of the way when you load your ATV. I do not recommend leaving the bed extender attached when you load your ATV. Check out the installation video that I have attached for this bed extender. We...

  • Can the Topline Truck Bed Extender Easily Accommodate Cargo Laying On It
  • The Truck Bed Extender # BX4004-02 can be folded down on the tailgate but won't be flat. You can remove all but the outer brackets to allow lumber or other cargo to lay across your tailgate.

The Extreme Gate bed extender has been discontinued.

  • Will Bed Mat Interfere with Installation of the Bed Extender in a 2011 Dodge Ram Laramie

Trimming is a decision that will have to be made at the time of installation, since we have not had the opportunity to install this item on a truck with a rubber bed mat yet.

  • Will Reese Fifth Wheel Installation Kit Fit 2008 Toyota Tundra With Plastic Bed Liner
  • The base rails for a fifth wheel hitch cannot be installed over plastic bed liners. Plastic bed liners must be cut out of the way to provide metal to metal contact. The base rails may be installed on a spray-in bed liner. I am including a link to an excellent video of trimming a bed liner for fifth wheel rails. The correct base rails and mounting brackets for your 2008 Toyota Tundra Extended Cab with the 8 foot bed will be the Reese Fifth Wheel Installation Kit, part # RP30035-309. This...

  • Is Anti-Rattle Device Needed for Malone Axis Truck Bed and Roof Load Extender
  • The anti-rattle bracket that comes with the Malone Axis Truck Bed and Roof Load Extender # MPG907 isn't a necessity but it is good to have as it reduces the amount of movement you'll see with the extender so I definitely recommend using it. You can also swap it out for a tool-free anti-rattle device like the Curt # C27UR or Brophy # RHSB to help speed things up. Attached are some review videos for you to check out.

  • Location of 5th Wheel Hitch Rails on a 2001 Ford F-250 Long Bed Diesel Extended Cab
  • Depending on the brackets and rails that were used to install the 5th wheel your rails could be installed in a close range of measurements. If your hitch was installed with the universal mounting brackets # RP30035 then your rear most rail should be 28-5/16 inches from the rear edge of the bed on your 2001 Ford F-250 Long Bed. I have linked a diagram from the instructions for you to better see. The center of rail to center of rail distance should measure 22 inches. If your hitch was...

  • Truck Bed Extender With 400 lb Capacity
  • The Erickson Big Bed Load Extender for 2" Hitches - 400 lbs # EM07600 is a fairly strong accessory. It is not recommended to add a wheel to this product and it would void the manufacturer warranty. Most other products rated for this application are rated at 350 lb load capacity so the Erickson extender is a little beefier. When in use it measures 52-1/2" long x 48-1/2" wide. I recommend using ratchet straps like the Erickson Re-Tractable Ratchet Straps w/ Push Button Releases - 1"...

  • I assume by Tahoe you are referring to a 1986 Chevy Suburban and you can use the Erickson Big Bed Junior Load Extender # EM07605 so long as you are comfortable with the rear of your Suburban being open. There are some measurements you should be aware of to ensure you have the proper clearance; the Load Extender # EM07605 will extend 4 feet from your your hitch receiver and can adjust in height from 17" to 24". To use the extender you also need Pin and Clip # PC3 to secure it to your hitch...
