Anyone know where to find exact dimensions for a 2024 HD 3500 with long box?  I need a few different measurements for custom cap I am having made for my Ultimate with a 7/31/23 build week.  There is a 6 week build time for the cap so I want to get that started asap.

 

If someone has access to a 2024 HD 3500 with long box I'd really appreciate if you could take some measurements.  I have a list of measurements from the cap manufacturer that I will send.

 

Thanks!

Same dimensions as 2020-2023.  Find one on a lot and bring some measuring devices with you.

I can measure mine for you. do you want the internal dimensions at the rail, external to the edge of the bed and tailgate or both?

Hey nitro882, thanks for getting back to me.  The custom cap has a sleeping platform that extends over the cab so I need some height measurements too.  Below is their list of measurements.  I will attach their photos too as some of the measurement descriptions are a bit vague.  Let me know if you have any questions.  Huge thanks, otherwise, I'd have to wait 6 weeks after receiving the truck to get cap.

Measurements:
1) Dimension from top of truck bed rail to highest point of cab.
2) Dimension from floor of truck bed to top of truck bed rail
3) Rear rail dimension
4) Front rail dimension (closest to cab)
5) Inside rail to inside rail (rear of truck)  
6) Inside rail to Inside Rail Front (closest to cab)
7) From bed rail front / closest to the cab to the inside of the tailgate. Hook tape measure on the bed rail front in the middle.

Measurements:
1) Dimension from top of truck bed rail to highest point of cab.  23 1/2"  The highest point of the cab is in the center not at the stop lamp. I used a straight edge on the roof so i didn't have to try and eyeball it and measured to that highest point. To the top of the stop lamp is 1" less.
2) Dimension from floor of truck bed to top of truck bed rail. 21 1/2"
3) Rear rail dimension 4"
4) Front rail dimension (closest to cab) 4 1/2"
5) Inside rail to inside rail (rear of truck)  62 1/4"
6) Inside rail to Inside Rail Front (closest to cab) 63 3/4"
7) From bed rail front / closest to the cab to the inside of the tailgate. Hook tape measure on the bed rail front in the middle. 98 3/4"

 

See above for the measurements of my truck. One thing i think you may want to double check is the rail dimensions if your truck is going to be a SRW. My truck is a DRW and i think it may make a difference given that the  plastic trim part numbers are different depending on DRW or SRW. I think the rest of the dimensions would be the same.

      Of course refrain from political debate but I myself have very dismal hope for what is all going on up here every where we turn so I nodded my head when I saw this joke.

      Wow I'm in a pickle. (Broke down truck) and a story.

      By Atlas · Posted

      While waiting for parts I have been working on installing the AC compressor, new accumulator, and orifice tube. Also changed out the high side ball valve (original). The orifice tube that was in there wasn't too bad. Slightly dirty, a little bit of junk, but not blocked. Glad I changed it out.   The accumulator, which should have been a 5 minute job, may have just burned $50. Put some PAG in it, wrote the date and mileage on the side, fresh o-rings and gooey'd up the threads and rings with Nylog. Got everything connected and snugged and was going to vacuum down the system, and....   My manifold gauge won't fit on the port. It's not an R12 service port. It LOOKS like an R134 service port but the diameter is a hair too large. There's a sticker on the accumulator that says it's designed to be used with R12 and R134a systems only. So it's not R1234yf. Even if I reduced the diameter slightly with a file, the shoulder on the port is too large so the quick-connect valve won't lock on. I'm stumped. It's going back, and 50/50 on if they'll give me a refund.   Also, I did a fuel pressure test.... Key on, the gauge spikes to about 60psi and quickly bleeds off, like 2psi per second. The fuel isn't going into the plenum, no smell, starts fine, so I'm guessing there's a bad check valve in the pump and the fuel is just draining back into the tank. oh, hell. But, it shouldn't be a problem, pump primes just fine and the truck starts right up. It just means I can't really ever use fuel pressure to verify a leak at the injector or intake.

      SERCICE ESC message?

      By No F-bdy Bs · Posted

      Got this yesterday out of nowhere. Truck is a 25',6.6 gasser with 8k miles.  Only semi anomaly is that the truck had been sitting, uncranked for 6 days. Elec Stability Control showed immediately upon cranking, not while driving. No drivability issues, just the message. Battery didn't seem to be weak when cranking over.  I drove it, killed it, let it sit a few hrs with no avail.  Truck is 100% stock. No damage.
