I have never came across a utility bed that would accomodate a fith wheel as most are too tall to do so, if you find a brand that will let us know as I would be interested. Goodluck,,, Rick

Might check w/ these guys at RKI (Rawson-Keonig). We used their boxes/beds on all of our line trucks when I worked line crew for electric co-op. I know they have some low profile beds. Give them a call, I bet they can hook you up.

ramlovingvet,

What exactly are you looking for? The reason I ask is that I have a 99 3500 and I bought it with a Utility body on it and I am looking to sell it. It's absolutely in flawless shape and has a headache rack on the front. It's currenlt for a 56" back of cab to center of wheel truck. It painted to match the truck silver and I have all the keys for it. It also has the rails for the 5th wheel in the back of the bed of the body already. These type of bodies start at around 5K new, and I would be willing to make you a smoking deal if it fits your application and you are intrested in this. I know very little about utility bodies, but I brought this one to several local body companys and they all say it's like new and work $ new.

If you are intested let me know and I will try to post up some pictures. If not, no problem.

Good luck

Would love it but my employeers will be paying for it and dont think a truck is what they have in mind.
But thanks

Ramlovingvet,

I appologize, I meant I was only selling the utility body, not the whole truck.... Sorry I did not make it more clear.

I will post up a picture of the body, but as stated, the trucks mine..

Here is a pictures of the Utility Body.



Let me know.

Rob
