Ram 1500

Help needed

Is there anyone here that has a Ram 1500 pickup that can tell me the inside WIDTH of the back bed  (inside to inside of wheel well)

I want to rent one to move 2 machines and I THINK I  can transport them on their side, but I just cant find the dimensions on the net.

Any help would be great...
Thanks

Most short beds are 6 ft long by 4 feet wide.  If it's a long bed usually they are 8 ft long 4 ft wide...

"The Ram 1500 is a full-size truck offered in three body styles -- regular cab, extended cab ("Quad Cab") and crew cab. The regular cab can be had with either a 6-foot-4-inch bed or an 8-foot version. The extended cab comes only with the 6-foot-4 bed"

A long bed can fit a full sheet of plywood ( 8x4) with the tailgate closed typically...

Yes. Normally 4 feet wide. As Slapshot mentioned, will fit a 4 x 8 sheet of plywood etc.

I'm with these guys. All full size trucks can handle a 4 X 8 sheet.
Our F150 short bed is still 4 feet wide between the wheel wells, but six feet long. That's not a Ram 150 but you'll find that all "real" trucks are pretty standard as far as the bed goes.

Thanks guys.... I think with that info I feel comfortable with what I rented, and I ' pretty sure I can put 2 machines back to back on their sides with the gate closed.

Again, thanks guys!

I had 2 VMC 7 ups on there side in my 1500 Dodge ! So you should be fine if there 81s lol

[BONOVOX]

Leonard..... the fact that you got 2 81's on their sides assures me that I can transport my 2 machines.....  ok, I might as well say what they are in advance..... picking up 2 VMC 88's.... pictures to follow once I get them lol

Don, I think in your next life you should be a detective lol.... the fact that you remembered I rented a RAM 1500 when I came to your place made me laugh...  nice one lol.... I forgot that I even mentioned that to you

I'm heading out to pick up the machines on Tues or Wed.....  I should have a pic up of them by Thursday.

As for what 88's they are, Ill just say that they are not the same brands.... lol.... (although they only made 4 brands of the 88's, so it's kind of obvious as to what they are
