Default Quadrasteer bed??

I'm sure it will bolt onto any truck but are the actual wheel openings much wider?? the reason I ask is because I have a sneaky feeling you can put some pretty serious meats back there with different backspace and not stick out. Maybe some 315's??? it definitely would look sick on a rcsb truck with that bed (remove the marker lights) and some nice wide tires back there....

-just thinking out loud really... let me know what you think.

if you want to talk sick, there's an OBS 1/2 ton rolling around town that's dropped with a 1 ton / dulley bed on it... When I first saw it I thought it was kinda odd to drop a 1 ton that low, then I noticed the front wheels, they were stock 1/2 ton wheels - the hubs didn't stick out like a 1 ton axle.... then my attention turned to the back of the truck... there weren't two tires on each side, that was a huge tire filling the entire area

I'm pretty sure they are wider. I haven't been up close to one, but the fenders stick out further than normal to allow for the wider axle.

Your bed needs adjusted on your real truck and your diecast model, the body lines are off. Or were you just trying to get them to match..?
