Fitment, Shipping & Product Support
Verified Fitment
This slide fits the 2019 and newer Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 with the 5.8-foot short bed. The 68-inch platform length was developed specifically for the redesigned T1-generation bed interior that debuted on the 2019 Silverado and Sierra — it does not fit any prior generation. If your truck is a 2018 or earlier model, the correct SKU is 15-6548-CGB (65" x 48").
| Make | Model | Confirmed Years | Bed Length | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chevrolet | Silverado 1500 | 2019–current | 5.8 ft | All cab configurations with 5.8' bed |
| GMC | Sierra 1500 | 2019–current | 5.8 ft | All cab configurations with 5.8' bed |
Fitment is bed-length and generation dependent. The T1 bed interior changed at the 2019 model year — the 68" platform is sized for the 2019+ bed only. Confirm your model year and bed length before ordering.

Critical Compatibility
| System / Condition | Interaction | Action Required |
|---|---|---|
| 2019 Silverado/Sierra generation split | This is the only Bedslide SKU sized for the 2019+ GM 1500 5.8-foot bed. The previous generation (2004–2018) takes 15-6548-CGB (65"). Installing the wrong size results in a non-returnable fitment error. | Confirm model year is 2019 or newer before ordering. |
| MultiPro Tailgate (GMC Sierra) / MultiFlex Tailgate (Chevrolet Silverado) | These multi-function tailgates include integrated steps and panel configurations. The Bedslide may contact the step or inner panel mechanism when extended. | Purchase BSA-SPACEBLKIT if clearance is insufficient. Test tailgate operation with slide in extended position before committing to the install position. |
| Spray-in / drop-in bedliners | Installation over bedliners not recommended per Bedslide. Liner thickness and surface vary. | Remove or modify liner before installation. |
| Tonneau covers and truck caps | No confirmed compatibility or conflict data. Cover clearance depends on profile and the 4.5-inch deck height addition. | Verify with your cover manufacturer before ordering. |
| Silverado/Sierra 2500HD / 3500HD | HD trucks do not offer a 5.8-foot bed — this fitment does not apply. Do not order this SKU for an HD truck regardless of year. | Identify bed length and order accordingly from the HD bed family. |
No confirmed electrical, ADAS, or OEM technology system conflicts for this product.
Installation Notes
Complexity: Moderate. Dealer installation recommended by Bedslide.
Estimated time: Approximately 1 hour per Bedslide source data.
Install method: Bolt-on on most applications. Mounts to existing bed rail system.
What makes it complex:
- Unit weight is not confirmed in Bedslide source data — budget for a two-person install regardless. At 68" x 48" platform size, solo positioning is not practical.
- Silverado/Sierra MultiPro / MultiFlex Tailgate owners must confirm the tailgate's inner step panel does not contact the slide when extended. Test before finalizing the mounting position.
- Bedliner presence complicates fit on any application. Spray-in liners may need trimming; drop-in liners typically must be removed.
- Post-install: cycle the slide under partial load and confirm all locking positions engage before full-load use.
Post-install: No alignment, calibration, or dealer visit required for standard installations.
Shipping: 68-inch Contractor model ships LTL freight — exceeds the 65-inch threshold for UPS Ground (which applies to BEDSLIDE S models only). Residential freight delivery included. OFAS will contact you after order placement to coordinate delivery.
Common Questions
Does this fit my 2019 or newer Silverado or Sierra?
Yes — provided your truck is a 1500 (light-duty) with the 5.8-foot short bed. The 68" x 48" platform was developed specifically for the 2019+ GM 1500 bed interior. Confirm your bed length is 5.8 feet before ordering — the 2019+ Silverado/Sierra 1500 is also available with a 6.5-foot bed (which takes 15-7848-CGB) and less commonly an 8-foot bed.
My truck is a 2018 Silverado — does anything fit it?
The 2018 and earlier Silverado/Sierra 5.5'/5.8' short bed takes the 65" x 48" platform — SKU 15-6548-CGB. The 2019 generation redesign changed the bed interior dimensions, which is why these are different SKUs.
I have a Sierra with the MultiPro Tailgate. Will this work?
The MultiPro Tailgate includes an inner step panel that deploys inward from the tailgate face. When the Bedslide is in the extended position, the step panel proximity must be confirmed. The BSA-SPACEBLKIT (Bedslide Lift Block Kit) addresses clearance issues if the slide contacts the step or inner panel. Test tailgate operation with the slide extended before finalizing your install position — or have your dealer confirm clearance during installation.
Is there a Heavy Duty 2,000 lb option for the 2019+ Silverado/Sierra 5.8-foot bed?
No confirmed Heavy Duty SKU exists for the 68" x 48" platform at this time. The Heavy Duty tier is not available in this platform size. If 2,000 lb capacity is a job requirement, text (469) 407-7538 — OFAS will confirm current availability before your order ships.
What is the warranty?
5-year standard warranty. Lifetime warranty available upon product registration with Bedslide. Register immediately after installation to lock in lifetime coverage.
The Obsidian Take
This slide exists for one application: the 2019 and newer Chevrolet Silverado 1500 or GMC Sierra 1500 with a 5.8-foot bed. The 68-inch platform was built because the 2019 bed redesign made the 65-inch platform too short — this is not a universal short-bed SKU, and it is not backward compatible with any pre-2019 GM truck.
It is not for the 2018-or-earlier Silverado/Sierra owner — that truck takes 15-6548-CGB. It is not for the HD truck owner — Silverado 2500HD and Sierra 2500HD do not have a 5.8-foot bed. And it is not for the buyer who needs full tailgate extension: the 75% travel is a fixed design characteristic of the Contractor tier. If 1,000 lb capacity is sufficient and full extension matters more, the Classic tier (10-6848-CLB) is the correct trade-off on the same platform.
At 1,500 lb capacity with a 2+4 bearing configuration, WeatherDeck composite deck, and BedTrax T-slot organization system, this is a precision-fit contractor tool for the truck it was designed for — not a cross-platform accessory.
