I believe that's a short bed. Believe me, you'd know if you had a long bed, they are extremely long between the front of the bed and the front of the rear fender well.

also will these headers work as a direct drop in replacement for the factory exhaust manifold?

It's a short bed, just put some sheets of drywall in it and you will see that it is short.

These will work if you have the 4.7L V8. Will not work on the 5.7L Hemi.
