Tonneau Cover Question

I have a 96 Ranger stepside. Found a used tonneau off a 2001. Are the beds the same size?

jeff2761, is it close by to where you live, so you could go see it and measure it? If not, then measure your bed on the inside up close to the top, for both the length and width. Call the guy that is selling the cover and ask him to measure his bed the same way you measured yours to see if it's the same dimensions. If so then it should fit.

All ranger step sides are the same size, just take some measurements to be sure it will fit.

I got the fiberglass tonneau on my ol' ranger (94) from an 01 I believe it was. Any stepside bed from 94-08 are exactly the same dimensions. They do differ in the tail lights however due to bulb/wiring changes. I know that's irrelevant but its worth mentioning.

Check out any tonneau manufacturer's website and/or ebay auctions for fitments. They'll all tell you what's up.
