Phoenix Sizing & Chassis Fitment Guide
To guarantee a flush fit, flatbed dimensions must match your truck's specific Cab-to-Axle (CA) measurement and rear-wheel configuration (Single Rear Wheel vs. Dual Rear Wheel).
| Bed Length | Cab-to-Axle (CA) | Wheel Config | Typical Vehicle Application |
|---|---|---|---|
| 7' 0" | 42" CA | SRW | Short Bed Pickup Box Delete (Single Rear Wheel) |
| 8' 6" | 56" – 58" CA | SRW or DRW | Long Bed Pickup Box Delete (Single or Dual Rear Wheel) |
| 9' 4" | 60" CA | DRW / Commercial | Standard Commercial Cab & Chassis Framework |
| 11' 4" | 84" CA | DRW / Commercial | Extended Commercial Cab & Chassis Framework |
*Fitment can be affected by truck generation, fuel tank configuration (single vs. dual), DEF filler neck routing, and factory safety sensors. Contact Riverside Trailers to verify exact VIN parameters across our Blackfoot, Jerome, or Caldwell locations.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the primary benefit of the Phoenix machined alignment trough?
The 18 1/8" center trough acts as a physical guide when backing up to hitches, directing the gooseneck coupler directly over the ball with low friction while protecting the deck surface from heavy coupler gouges.
How does the dovetail rear end improve trailer clearance?
The low-profile rear dovetail slopes downward at the tailboard, dropping the deck height where the trailer overhang pivots. This eliminates corner interference when making sharp turns or traversing washboard ranch roads with heavy goosenecks.
Are Phoenix beds compatible with factory backup cameras and parking sensors?
Yes. When installed at any Riverside Trailers service bay (Blackfoot, Jerome, or Caldwell), our service technicians utilize camera relocation harnesses and drill precise mounting ports in the rear apron to retain your factory backup camera and parking proximity sensors.
Can I order a custom color to match my truck?
High-Gloss Black is our standard, primary stocked finish across all locations. Custom paint-to-match finishes are available via Custom Order only. Because custom paint runs require factory scheduling, please call our sales team to verify exact color matching and build lead times.
Why does Legend X use structural steel channel instead of roll-formed steel?
Solid 4" structural steel channel frame rails provide far superior torsional strength, deck sag resistance, and internal rust defense compared to cheaper, thinner roll-formed steel runners that can twist under heavy loads.
Where can I get a Phoenix Skirted Flatbed installed?
We offer professional in-house installations at all three Riverside Trailers service locations in Blackfoot, Jerome, and Caldwell, ID. Visit www.riversidetrailers.com to contact your nearest branch or schedule an upfit appointment.
