Measurement needed

Can you measure from the back of the cab to the front of the bed please?

I am doing custom mounts on my bed (new bed floor) and need the right spacing before I start welding.

Thanks in advance.

Re: Measurement needed

On the top rail to the cab I have min adjusted to 7/8". But, I think you're going to find some differences since the bed is adjustable back and forth a small amount -I believe it can move 1/2 inch or so.

Can someone give me the measurement from the head panel to the back of the cab?

Awesome thanks. I needed to clarify, as I hadn't figured out where to measure from.
