I don't have one handy to measure but what I did when my buddy Tim was moving dually fenders onto his shortbed is make paper templates from the original bed when we removed the fenders. Taped the paper right on the body line then punched through everywhere there was a hole for a fender stud. Made it a snap. I'm guessing you don't have the original bed to measure from though.
