Looking at the 2019 Ram we installed these on I'm guessing the 71" bars are what you need but I would measure just to be sure. Run a tape measure across the bed of your 2024 Ram to see what the best size would be for your application. If the 65" bars give you enough space and overhang based on the t-slot from the rails then get the # RRVA165B-RRRLT600. If the 71" bars seem better then use the # RRVA180B-RRRLT600 instead.

Hey, what did you find when you measured the bed on your Ram with the Retrax PowertraxPro XR cover? Once you had the width, did the 65 or 71 bars end up being the better fit? Your update could make it easier for the next person setting up a similar truck bed.
