Supercab doesn't have a 5.5, but the 6.5 is 145 in, the 8 ft is 163 inches.

Scroll down to Specifications and you can see all the values.

Here's an example window sticker, note the Wheelbase is listed right under the trim.

Enjoy!
Note quite, there is a supercab with a 5.5 box. Its wheelbase is 133
Pricey though

I'd tell the dealer what you want and let them do the legwork if they want the sale. Or head for the fleet dept. They are usually pretty swell folks and don't mind ordering (in my experience, at least).

That is because of area of responsibility that the dealership signs with Ford. This agreement has been around for years and the internet has put it out of date. The dealerships will more than likely not let Ford out of that part of the agreement.
