Bedslide or equivalent - thoughts?

[tundrwd]

Curious if anyone has installed a BedSlide - or equivalent. My old 1/2 ton wasn't a problem getting into from the sides, even with an Undercover Original tonneau cover (like the ability to lock it). But now with my 2500HD, even I (6'3") have problems getting to things in the back. And makes it a bit more interesting with an Undercover on it again (again - like the ability to lock it).

 

So curious if anyone has installed anything like a BedSlide - what you like/dislike, etc.

 

I'm a bit concerned about the loss of cargo space (guessing the slide is about 4.5-5.5" high), and with a hard cover over the bed, that results in less space for taller items. NOT a "work" truck - it's a camper-hauler, so I keep a lot of camping items in the back of the pickup. So, sliding the contents out seems like a good idea.

I installed a set of fab fours full cab bars. There's a step at the front of the bed that makes it easy to get stuff in the middle, or step from there to the tire. Best part is they keep rocks from hitting the paint.

Hey,

 

I'm Jake with BEDSLIDE. I don't want to seem biased, but I can tell you that the BEDSLIDE is 4.5" in profile. You can fit a 5 gallon bucket under a truck cover without having to open the cover and just sliding the BEDSLIDE. You can also go with the BEDSLIDE S model which is 4" in profile. I have heard many customers say they won't have another truck without a BEDSLIDE. I also personally have one and love it.

What about something like this: https://decked.com/

With those corner bumper steps, getting in and out of my box is a breeze. I'm 6' and I only have issues reaching into my deep weatherguard toolbox from outside the truck.

 

My buddy installed a bed slide...a 6' piece of cardboard! His box isn't bed lined so the cardboard slides easily

Been a strong User of Bedslide in all our trucks, wouldn't take delivery of my new truck without them transferring my Bedslides in the new one..

had Bedslide 1000

bedslide 1000 pro Se

and now just added to my new 2017 2500 all terrain x the Bedslide S , amazing that new composite board material is so light yet works just like the older version with the plywood bottoms..

 

don't miss out you won't regret it!

I just installed my bedslide in my 17 dually, had it all the way out with a 5000 watt gen and a bunch of tools on it, works great! I'm building some tool boxes on the side as I got a older one and don't want to buy the updated rails
