Answer 1

i agree with chris.

i measured my 6ft bar and from inside collar to collar is only 44inches and the bench dimension is 64inches wide so i don't think a standard 6ft bar will work.

Answer 2

well its 64 inches wide bracket to bracket, so measure the inside of your bar collar to collar and see if its 64 inches, but i think a 6 foot barbell will not fit these sorts of benches tend to be made with 7ft bars in mind, a 6 foor bar is likely to barely fit if it does, some barbells have different lengths on either end to hold the discs so its all down to your exact model of bar, i personally would play it safe and buy a 7 foot barbell
