Need a bed measurement
I am doing some body work on the bed of my truck. It's a 79 short bed fleetside. I am needing the opening size for the tailgate area. If anyone can post the opening size I would appreciate it.

Re: Need a bed measurement
What measurement are you looking for? from post to post where the tail gate fits in?

Re: Need a bed measurement
My bed sides are off the bed right now but by the existing seam sealer marks on the floor it looks like it's 65 1/4"

Re: Need a bed measurement
On my 77 fleet the post opening is 65 1/4" on top and 65 1/8" on bottom.
Th tail gate opening is 67 1/8" on top and 67 1/4" on the bottom. The gap with the gate closed is 1/4" on the left and 1/8" on the right.
