Post by jp2005 »

Can someone with (F100 2wd stock height)do me a flavor please and take a exact measurement from the top of the rear of the bed to the ground? Yes I know theirs diagrams with this information. I just want to double check.Id measure my own truck but its 2000 miles away right now. I would really appreciate it.

I need to clear 46 3/8

You mean the top of the tailgate to the ground?

I make mine about 50 1/4 at the highest point.

It is an F101, long bed with comfort flex springs and smallish tires (~28”)

That's exactly what I needed. It's not going to fit. :( is there anyway you can measure the front. From the top of the hood to the ground? There's this hang down storage cage over the rear of my parking spot at my apartments. If I park in front of it the truck will stick out to far.

Little harder to measure, as you probably know it has a peak in the middle and appears to rise slightly as it travels toward the W/S. I make it to be at least 49 probably more like 50. Because of the way my truck is currently parked I could be off a bit on this one, but I don’t think there’s any chance I’m off enough to make it work.

I can try to get it in the garage this weekend and measure it more accurately if you wish.

Is there any adjustment in the cage?

I really appreciate the help, it's not going to fit. Unfortunately its bolted to concrete so I cant even move it. Thank you again for doing that. :fr:
