Should I go with the 49in on my 2008 Ram 1500, or a 60in?

Got the 48in and I looks great. Once centered not to much room left. Used the 3m adhesive no drilling.

it totally depends on the width of tailgate mine is only 52" wide so the 60" is just to wide for me. jt

Measure the area available to mount the bar. If you can fit the 60" one without bending it that is the way I would go. I mounted a 60" on my suv & it did not fit well. On my wife's suv I used the 48" and it fits perfect. The bigger offers better protection and visibility by others but fit is most important.

It depends on what you use it for. We wanted a smaller one like the 2007 which works great, but if you use it for larger things, and don't mind the large footprint, then get the 2009.

i would go with the 2 1/2", it gives you a level stance where the 2" has that slight back end rise. the 2 1/2" we've used here at the dealership have given the trucks a level look, they look pretty cool.

Either will work but the 31 will be a tighter fit. May look better also. My 32 is slightly big. Not bad looking though just not that drum tight look.

Hello April Anderson, The correct size for your 2014 Ram 1500 is our XLarge-size divider; msp-06, bed width range = 64" to 71". The upper, and lower tube sets are further adjustable 3" to 5" (top to bottom) to accommodate variance in bed width, bed liners, etc. If you have additional questions, please let us know.

I went to the 275's on 18" rims on mine, I like them, was going to put the 285's on ( which is the max on stock wheels and no spacers without rubbing) but they start to get pricey. the daughters' boyfriends think it looks good.

Well it fits perfect on my 03 Dodge ram 1500, so I think it should on a 09.

Both will do what they are designed to do. from all I've seen and heard, it's a personal preference. I do agree that the mounting system could use a good upgrading. Even using the dash mounting plate, it still falls off from time to time.

Funny I got this email right after I loaded my 32" wide board. Yes, will be fine. Length doesn't matter except for the particular vehicle. I take my 8'6 SUP on a bmw 530i. Don't like it at highway speeds, but Surface streets ok.

You have a 3rd generation Ram, Barry, these are for the 2nd generation Rams (1994-2001). The body style changed in 2002-2009 (with a facelift 2006).Sorry, this comment pertains to 1500 only.

I only mounted a 42" on it, but it is a good, solid, well-built mount based on the one I received. As for a 60", I would check to make certain that the mounting is compatible.

With the 2.5 inch it won't look too bad as long as you have the factory 265s, but any smaller would look stupid, but if you want the best look go with a set of 285s

I have a 40 inch and 50 inch. The 40 inch is too small while the 50 inch is great. I don't know how much difference there is between the 46 inch and the 50 inch but there is a huge difference between the 40 and 50 inch. If there is not too much difference in the price I would suggest the 50 inch. I am very happy with that.

I would suggest the 4.3 you can get one for about &60.00 or so,the 7.0 is too big in my opinion but worked well in my van on the dash.

look on the back of the housing if you have a 45 you might want a 55 i wished i would of bought a 65 in stead of 55.

From what I have learned from other RV owners the Smart Solutions Rock Solid 96" is preferred. First is the price difference and second the Rock Guard is easily permanently installed and I don't have to think about it further. I was able to install it under our motorhome equal distant between the rear tires and the back bumper 3" off the ground. I connected it to the frame with simple angle iron and it provides great protection. Papabob.

I would measure the width of the tailgate opening. I believe a 60" bar would be a better fit Also be advised if youaare in a cold climate these bars crack easily when the temp. gets into the single numbers.
