Measure smart

What to measure.

Four numbers decide nearly every fit check. Get these right and the rest follows.

  1. 01Width between the wheel wells against the 48 inch sheet
  2. 02Bed length against the 96 inch sheet, tailgate up and down
  3. 03Whether the sheet rides on the floor or on top of the wheel wells
  4. 04Legal overhang and tie-down rules with the tailgate down

Don't make these

Common mistakes.

Most “it didn't fit” stories trace back to one of these oversights.

  1. ⚠Assuming every pickup carries a 4x8 sheet flat on the floor
  2. ⚠Confusing max bed width with the narrower width between the wheel wells
  3. ⚠Forgetting the 96 inch length overhangs every bed shorter than 8 feet
  4. ⚠Skipping the strap and flag on an overhanging load

Frequently asked

Questions we keep getting.

  • Which trucks fit plywood flat between the wheel wells?

    Full-size trucks like the F-150, Silverado, and Ram at about 50 to 51 inches, plus the Honda Ridgeline at about 50 inches. The Ford Ranger at about 48.2 inches just clears a 48 inch sheet.

    01

  • Does a Tacoma carry plywood flat?

    Not on the floor. The Tacoma is about 44.7 inches between the wheel wells and a sheet is 48 inches, so the plywood rides on top of the wells instead.

    02

  • Do full-size trucks carry a 4x8 sheet with the tailgate up?

    Flat between the wells, yes, but the 96 inch length still overhangs a 5.5 or 6.5 foot bed, so drop the tailgate for the length even when the width fits.
