if your truck is a reg cab long bed like in your avatar then their is a 3" difference in the wheelbase

I saw a ex cab short bed dually near Youngstown Ohio. Had to take a second look. I think the guy said it was a 96 or 97. He wanted a dually to pull a fifth wheel camper but didnt want the longer wheelbase with a 8' bed. He said toughest part was the dually bed side fender extensions, he reworked the stock ones from the 8' bed to fit properly on the 6' bed. I thought he said there was a company out there that made the dually fenders for a 6' bed.
Anyway the truck looked good, dark blue with aluminum wheels with a 5.9 cummins and 4x4. Cought my eye. Something you dont see everyday...
