I'm thinking about getting one for my '05 1500 QC SB more for both the partioning inside the bed when flipped in and also for the those occassions to increase my bed length. Does it lock in pretty well into the bed? Does it rattle at all? Is it quick and easy to flip around or remove or do you find it a hassle when you don't want it in the bed?

 

I don't have the Mopar bed extender, but I do have a Ready Ramp that doubles as a bed extender... http://www.readyramp.com/ It works great as a ramp and then quickly attaches as a bed extender utilizing the tail gate latch and pins. If I don't need it, it stores flat in the bed, back of the cab or in the garage. You can also get a bed bracket http://www.readyramp.com/bracket.php that allows you to use it as a bed partition.

Its not exactly answering your question, but I thought I'd throw it out there as an alternative.

Cheers,
Mark

 

JUST INSTALLED MINE. ITS GOT RUBBER BOOTS ON 2 PEGS WHEN FLIPPED IN, WHEN EXTENDED IT SNAPS ONTO THE TAILGATE VIA 2 CLIPS SCREWED IN. IT DOESN'T RATTLE, LOVE THE SEPARATION BENIFITS AND EXTENSION ABILITY. ITS EASY TO INSTALL.

 

Is there any drilling involved to install the Mopar unit?

 

how much do they go far?
