The Curt bed extender was simple to install, and remove and store when not needed. It is rock solid and can be used as a tie-down point when securing cargo. I like the coverage of this bed extender and relied on etrailer videos before I purchased it. The pin that fits in the V-opening, and the latch that locks into the truck bed tailgate latch are flexible and can be installed in many different positions. The key is to find the positions that enable the extender tailgate to fit. The etrailer staff helped me try several positions before finding one that worked. I like this extender because it is solid when installed, and simple to remove and store. I only need it when we are hauling stuff. When not in use it stores flat in the barn or under my toolbox in the truck bed.

My Curt bed extender is still one of my go-to tools. It takes just a minute to install and folds flat to store out of the way on the barn wall. We have used it to transport large pieces of furniture, and a large number of large boxes. I cannot imagine how we could have accomplished these tasks without the bed extender.



by:

Biggest hunk of crap I've ever owned. It was difficult to install, it doesn't fit worth anything, and overall it's HEAVY AND CUMBERSOME. It went back to my OG tailgate extender from Lund. I wouldn't recommend this product to anyone if you can help it.



by:

item did not arrive



by:

The bed extender worked as described the only problem was I did not get the directions for it but I managed to put it together and it worked fine We definitely recommend this product



by:

I've had this truck bed extender for about a year. I've been using it on my 2011 Ford F150.
It looks and functions great. Sturdy quality with no issues so far.
I only have one complaint/recommendation to the makers: make the bottom metal rods slightly longer, so when the gate is lowered, it doesn't risk falling off.

Highly recommend!



by:

My extender came with a bracket on the left side that was welded improperly. Because of that it makes my bed extender very difficult to use. I contacted Curt after my purchase, and they would not do anything for me.



by:

Easy to use. Folds away for easy storage. Excellent priduct. Would highly recommend.



by:

Exactly as described. Had it installed in 20 minutes or less. Took a minute to adjust the tailgate latches, but no biggie.



by:

I love that this product fits my beat-up 1998 Ford F-150 XLT. I needed additional room to put a 14-foot kayak. This will help out perfectly. Great price in comparison to other high-priced items. It is simple to put together.



by:

Excellent product well built easily ins talled



by:

Got it quickly, and it looks and works great!



by:

Well, this is the one I wanted the most and now have it!

Its great

  • How Does Curt Universal Truck Bed Extender with Fold-Down Tailgate Remove When Not In Use
    When not in use you can pretty easily remove the Curt Universal Truck Bed Extender with Fold-Down Tailgate # C57WR from the truck it is installed on. It's only three pieces and it disassembles pretty easily.

  • Will Bed Extender Fit a 2010 Ford F-150
    I reccomend the Curt # C57WR Universal Truck Bed Exender which will fit nearly all full size pickup trucks including Chevrolet, GMC, Ford, Dodge, Ram, and Nissan, with standard 60" wide tail gates. (6.5 foot and longer beds) and provide 26-1/2 inches of additional bed length for storage and hauling. May not work with flare-style tailgates. Compatible with most tonneau covers. This will work with your Ford and give you many more options for hauling things.

  • Is The Curt Universal Truck Bed Extender Able To Fold In My 2018 Ford F-150 Truck Bed

  • Will The Curt Truck Bed Extender Prevent Tailgate Bounce.
    The Curt Universal Truck Bed Extender with Fold-Down Tailgate # C57WR is considered an extension of your bed and not an enhancement to it. It will not give your tailgate extra capacity or strength and should not be used for a tie down point or a step. Due to its weight, about 50 pounds, it could possibly hold the tailgate down some and prevent some shake or rattle but that is not its intended design or use.

  • Will a Bed Extender Fit a Ford Explorer Sport Trac with a Bed Liner
    The Curt Bed Extender, # C57WR, 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. On an Explorer Sport Trac, you will need to measure the width of the bed where the extender will fit. If it is 48 inches or greater in width, the extender will fit.

  • Recommended Hitch Extender for Kuat Transfer Bike Rack with Lowered Tailgate of 2017 Nissan Frontier
    For a Kuat Transfer 2 bike rack to not touch a lowered tailgate on a 2017 Nissan Frontier I recommend using the Curt Extender for 2" Receivers -18" Long # C45796. This will move the hitch pin hole centers 18 inches and will also give you a tongue weight restriction of 350 lbs. Your Kuat Transfer 2-Bike will work just fine with that restriction. If you will be traveling with the tailgate down, I recommend the Fold Down Truck Bed Expander # C57WR to secure your cargo in the bed of your truck.
