P1000 Anybody have any luck...

[Donnie]

Getting a P1000-5 in the back of a pickup, particularly a newer GM? Says it's too wide, but just by a hair. I was wondering if the tires would squeeze past the tailgate bulkhead, the rest should be a non-event. I have a long bed and I would like to see once it's in how much tire is on the tailgate.

Any takers? I'm in Afghanistan and I don't have the rig in front of me to test. I want to buy a bed cover and if the pioneer fits that will impact my decision.

TIA

I think the only pickup's with wide enough beds will be the 73-87 GM trucks.

Plenty of room in 92 Cummins. Doesn't even squat.gets some looks though. Rear tires sit in the box but that's Dodge. If you find a truck that you can understand it's hard on gates

I was even considering a DiamondBack HD Bed cover, but the Hondas a little on the portly side. Diamondback only rates their covers to 1600lbs.

I have an 07 2500hd Classic long bed and it fits in its tight but fits

Do you trust the cables? How far onto the tailgate was the rear tires? Don't suppose you have any pics do you?

How wide is that Can AM?

 

[CumminsPusher]

I know this is old thread, but anybody k is who makes the rack that can am is sitting on? I need something like that with the hitch extension built in

 

[CumminsPusher]

Bought a pickup so I don't have to pull doubles. Been looking at options from flatbeds to over the cab racks, but need the hitch extension to pull the camper

 

[CumminsPusher]

I think only the 90s dodges and Chevys are wide enough to get it in there. I'll look to see if you still selling them

I measured it and if I can get it over the tailgate jamb I'm golden. Btw. 94 f150

Not sure how he does it but check @SuperYeti 's post in the rotm

Yeah, that's one if those diamond back covers. Pretty slick, but I don't care for that high of center of gravity. I'd like it to be lower in the truck bed

Awesome I didn't know ford did too. That makes all 90's

Don't get me wrong, it's tighter than a prom date, but there is about 2 inches to spare.
