Judging by your picture, your truck almost looks like a reg cab, long bed.
Take a tape measure to it and see if it's 6ft or 7ft.
Edit: Nvm, I just noticed you have two trucks listed.

Reg cab, long bed. Seems to be just about perfect.

I'm working on an 86 extended cab short bed. Still on the hunt for a dual tank short bed for a swap!

Just saying but i think the regular cab should herby be referred to as the "loner cab". I dont have a ranger but if i did it would be; ext cab no bed( or flat bed)

My 94 is currently 5.5" lifted 2wd std cab, long bed. However in time it will be a SAS 4wd, extended cab,long bed.

I want the extra space of the extended cab & dont want to do away with the long bed,so my frame will need to be made 14.5" longer.

I already have a ext. cab from a 98

Hoping to have all done in the next 2-3 yrs as this is currently on a very limited budget.

I agree. Most of my friends have Jeeps and this combo allows me to go through the trails with them without having a Jeep or Sammy.
