Did Ford make a dual rear wheel 8 ft bed on their 1973-1979 Ford trucks? I mean an 8 ft bed with fender extensions on the rear wheel wells from the factory.

Unfortunately no.

 

Ford's dually p/u debuted in 1980 with the redesign.

 

to get that kind of bed you have to call or contact centurian they made alot of toys for those years add ons and stuff

 

I saw a 78? F350 with the dually rear. It has a custom made 8" bed. Looks factory. Now, that's a beefy truck. Ford made factory dually rears in their trucks, but limited to platform, stake or chassis type.

 

I'm not very familiar with the 73-79 ford pickup but i know a guy that has a 79 ford pickup that is a crewcab longbed dually. now it was not a factory job because i helped him build it. We took a crewcab shortbed and extended the frame two feet to fit the longbed box. Then he ordered some dually fenders from jc whitney for a 73-79 pickup. they ran about 280-300(i think). now i don't know if these are a factory design or something that is some company building them. but they do look factory. and it is a really sharp truck.
just thought i would put some input in.

I have seen a few '73-'79 F-350 duallys with pickup beds. The ones I have seen were '73-'79 ford pickup beds with fenders from '73-'90 chevy dually trucks.

 

Cool,does anyone have any pics they can post?
