TxGearhead, yeah, your posts a while back scarred me! I'll measure and report on fit ...
I wonder how long those fenders are supposed to last before an "oops". Flatbed in the future??

It didn't take me long to have an ooops. I was helping a friend move some lawn equipment, had my little (5' X 13') utility trailer hooked up, was backing into his driveway, following his directions, traffic was coming around a curve, he kept waving me back to get me out of the road, I jack knifed the trailer. The front corner of the trailer put a 2" cut in the fender. I have a wider trailer on order and bought a 14" hitch extension.
As far as loading the Bigfoot on the truck I just go slow slow. Once past the jacks there is room to pull forward and "square up". Just don't get in a hurry and get frustrated.
Yeah if you think about it put a dimension on here between the front jacks. I doubt it's changed much. I have maybe 3/4" clearance. Maybe. The tailgate opening is close as well. Watch that when backing in. I have a couple short pieces of 1" X 4" covered with astroturf that I slip in there.
