Is the divider there? They removed the "twist studs" at the rear of the truck bed to flip it over-at least with the MFT. I can't speak to the non-MFT trucks. I haven't tried to purchase them to see if they will still work or not but I assume they will.

Did you custom order or buy it off the lot? If off the lot, its possible they removed it and sold it separately, or gave it to another owner whom wanted it. (They may have then forgotten, or it was a different salesman, so not necessarily did it to you on purpose.)

It’s my understanding that the divider is only included in the bed utility group with Rambox-equipped trucks. Regular beds don’t have it. And for those with the divider, Ram eliminated the bed extender aspect, as it violated some kind of visibility rule regarding the tail lights.
I reserve the right to be wrong…it’s just what I recall reading a while back.

Correct on all points. And those extender pegs can still be “sourced”…part numbers available on old threads.

Here are the extender pegs. These are the ones I ordered and they work exactly like my old ones.

As far as the divider goes, other users are correct. It now only comes with the BUG on RamBox equipped trucks. If you have ramboxes and the BUG you should've gotten the divider

It's my understanding that the bed divider, that comes with the BUG on RamBox equipped beds, does work as a bed extender. There's a video of it somewhere on YouTube.

Not anymore - they modified it. You're probably seeing an older version.

Eighty nailed it above, and there are multiple older threads on this subject. The bed divider/extender used to automatically come with the rambox option on 4th gens. On 5th gens they changed this, and you only got the bed extender with the rambox option only if you also got the bed utility group. Another change for 5th gens is that they stopped installing the pegs to use the bed divider as a bed extender. But the pegs for 4th gens are a direct bolt on for 5th gens. I've installed those on 3 different 5th gens.

Here's some pics with the RamBox bed extender that comes with the BUG and/or the 10th Anniversary Limited Package. I bought the pegs and latches kit from Amazon and it works perfectly.

Wish I had done it on my 2020!!


These are the ones recommended by another user on here but I see now there are alternative options that are cheaper on the 'jungle.
