This bed extender is awesome. I installed it on my 2007 Ranger. I was really impressed by how heavy grade, and high quality the hardware is. The cage itself is made really well as well and the stainless steel brackets are master pieces. This extender will probably out live the truck!
The installation was very easy, i used a drill press and put new holes in the bracket and lined it up with the existing holes on my Ranger Tailgate. The directions are very clear, and i cant speak highly enough for how heavy duty the brackets are. The extender adds about 15 pounds of weight to the tailgate which the tailgate handles with no problem.
It adds about 6" of depth to the tailgate. I love this system because you can still use your full bed length and keep your tonneau cover closed. theres no bulky cage to swing in or out. if you need the bed length you just drop the tail gate and this is folded out into position in seconds. I haul big bulky gear for windsurfing and can now haul masts and sails that are just over 7.5' long.
If you need to take it off, you just pop out the two stainless pins, the whole cage comes right off and can be easily stowed against the wall in your garage taking up limited space.
I was concerned about the 'universal fit' but dont let that alarm you, they built a very high quality, ingenious product. 22557
Installation is terrible. Trying to install this produst on a Chevolet Avalanche does not work with the hardware supplied.The bed of the tailgate is between 3/16 & 1/4 inch thick and the toggle bolts supplied will only work on sheet metal.2895

Installation on a 2004 Chevrolet Avalanche went smoothly, taking about 30 minutes. The instructions that come with the product are well-written; clear and useful. The fit of the bed extender on the tailgate is excellent. Very sturdy. Recommend highly.9734

The rubber bed and tailgate mat in your 2011 Dodge Ram Laramie will not prohibit the installation of the Topline Bed Extender, item # BX4004-02, on your pickup, but you may need to trim the bed mat for installation.
Trimming is a decision that will have to be made at the time of installation, since we have not had the opportunity to install this item on a truck with a rubber bed mat yet. view full answer...

The Topline Bed Extender, # BX4004-02, will fit if you have a bed liner. However, you may find that you will have to trim the bed liner on some vehicles. Since every vehicle and bed liner combination is different, I cannot say for certain if you will need to trim or not.
