Fitment, Shipping & Product Support
Verified Fitment
This slide fits the Ram 1500, 2500, and 3500 with a 6.4-foot bed, model years 2002 through current. Fitment applies with or without the RamBox storage system — the 6.4-foot Ram bed interior accommodates the 73" x 48" platform regardless of RamBox configuration. This is the silver Contractor-tier equivalent of the black 15-7348-CGB, sharing the same platform and all specifications.
| Make | Model | Confirmed Years | Bed Length | RamBox | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Ram | 1500 | 2002–current | 6.4 ft | With or without | Includes 2019–current Ram 1500 Classic body-on-frame |
| Ram | 2500 | 2002–current | 6.4 ft | With or without | |
| Ram | 3500 SRW | 2002–current | 6.4 ft | With or without | DRW — see Field 3 |
Fitment is bed-length dependent. Engine, fuel type, and drivetrain do not restrict this fitment. The 6.4-foot Ram bed accommodates the 73" x 48" platform with or without RamBox — unlike the 5.7-foot bed, which splits by RamBox. Confirm your bed length before ordering.

| Item | Notes |
|---|---|
| DECKED system install kit | If your Ram 6.4-foot bed already has a DECKED organizer installed, a compatible over-DECKED install kit exists for 5.5' and 6.5' bed applications. Confirm with OFAS whether this applies to your specific Ram 6.4' bed configuration before ordering. Text (469) 407-7538. |

No BSA-HALUMKT aluminum bed kit required for Ram applications — Ram uses steel beds. Not applicable to this fitment.
Critical Compatibility
| System / Condition | Interaction | Action Required |
|---|---|---|
| Ram 6.4-foot bed — RamBox does NOT split this SKU | Unlike the 5.7-foot Ram bed where RamBox drives a different platform, the 6.4-foot bed fits the 73" x 48" platform with or without RamBox. Order normally for any Ram 6.4-foot bed. | No action required. |
| Ram 3500 DRW | DRW rear axle configuration may affect wheel well intrusion vs. SRW. Not explicitly confirmed or excluded by Bedslide. | Text (469) 407-7538 before ordering if your Ram 3500 is a dually. |
| DECKED bed organizer systems | A dedicated install kit exists for Bedslide installation over a DECKED system on 5.5' and 6.5' bed applications. Applicability to the Ram 6.4' bed is not confirmed from source data. | Contact OFAS before ordering if you have a DECKED system installed. Text (469) 407-7538. |
| Tailgate with integrated step | Ram Multi-Function Tailgate and aftermarket step options may contact the slide when extended. | Purchase BSA-SPACEBLKIT if clearance is insufficient. |
| Spray-in / drop-in bedliners | Installation over bedliners not recommended per Bedslide. Liner thickness and surface vary. | Remove or modify liner before installation. |
| Silver finish in commercial environments | Silver shows surface contamination — mud, oil, scratches — more visibly than black in daily high-grime use. No functional or warranty consequence — both finishes are structurally identical. | Cosmetic consideration only. Black (15-7348-CGB) is the more practical finish for high-grime commercial operations. |
No confirmed electrical, ADAS, air suspension, or OEM technology system conflicts for this product.
Installation Notes
Complexity: Intermediate. Dealer installation recommended by Bedslide.
Estimated time: Approximately 1 hour per Bedslide source data.
Install method: Drilled mount. Four ½-inch holes required in the truck bed floor — permanent modification. No confirmed no-drill kit exists for the Ram 6.4-foot bed application.
Required tools:
| Tool | Required |
|---|---|
| Drill | Yes |
| ½-inch drill bit | Yes |
| Riv nut tool | Yes (included in hardware kit) |
| ½-inch socket and ratchet | Yes |
| ½-inch open-end wrench | Yes |
| Allen wrench | Yes |
| Tape measure | Yes |
| Marker | Yes |
What makes it complex:
- At 170 lb, a second person is required for safe positioning.
- Drilling four ½-inch holes is permanent. Center between wheel wells and confirm 1.5-inch clearance at the bulkhead before marking holes.
- Do not use air impact tools on riv nuts — hand-install only.
- If a DECKED organizer is installed, confirm over-DECKED kit applicability before proceeding.
- Bedliner presence requires removal or adjustment before install.
Post-install: No alignment, calibration, or dealer visit required. Cycle under partial load and confirm all locking positions engage at correct intervals before full-load use.
Shipping: 73-inch platform ships LTL freight. Ships within 3 business days. Residential delivery included. OFAS will contact you after order placement to coordinate delivery.
Common Questions
This is $287 less than the black version (15-7348-CGB). What's different?
Bedslide's published pricing shows the silver Contractor at $1,834 vs. the black at $2,121 for an identical 73" x 48" platform, identical 1,500 lb capacity, identical 2+2 bearing configuration, and identical warranty. The price difference reflects Bedslide's own pricing structure between finish variants — there is no functional or structural difference. Silver delivers the same specs at a confirmed $287 lower cost.
My Ram has RamBox and a 6.4-foot bed — does RamBox affect which SKU I need?
No — for the 6.4-foot Ram bed, RamBox does not change the SKU. Bedslide confirms the 73" x 48" platform fits the 6.4-foot bed with or without RamBox. This is the opposite of the 5.7-foot bed, where RamBox status forces a different platform size.
Does this require drilling?
Yes — four ½-inch holes are required. No confirmed no-drill kit exists for the Ram 6.4-foot bed application. This is a permanent bed modification. If your truck is leased, confirm with your leasing company before ordering.
I have a DECKED system installed — can I still use this slide?
A Bedslide install kit for over-DECKED installation exists for 5.5' and 6.5' bed applications. Whether it applies to the Ram 6.4-foot bed specifically is not confirmed in available source data. Text (469) 407-7538 before ordering if you have a DECKED system — OFAS will confirm compatibility before your order ships.
What is the difference between this and the Classic 10-7348-CLB?
Same 73" x 48" platform. The Classic is rated 1,000 lb. The Contractor is rated 1,500 lb. If your loads consistently approach or exceed 1,000 lb, the Contractor is the correct tier. The Classic is the right choice for general cargo and daily work-truck use where 1,000 lb is sufficient.
What is the warranty?
5-year standard warranty. Lifetime warranty available upon product registration with Bedslide. Register immediately after installation.
The Obsidian Take
This slide is for the 2002-and-newer Ram 1500, 2500, or 3500 owner with a 6.4-foot bed who needs 1,500 lb contractor-tier capacity and either prefers silver finish or is working a tighter budget. At $287 less than the black sibling on identical specs — same platform, same bearings, same WeatherDeck deck, same warranty — the silver version is the correct choice when finish preference is neutral or favorable to silver.
It is not for the Ram owner with a 5.7-foot bed — that application requires a different platform regardless of RamBox configuration. It is not for any Toyota buyer — no Toyota truck has a 6.2-foot bed and no Toyota application exists for this platform. It is not for buyers who need 2,000 lb capacity — no Heavy Duty option is confirmed for the 73" x 48" platform. And it is not for the operator running daily high-grime commercial loads where silver surface contamination is a practical maintenance concern — the black version (15-7348-CGB) is more pragmatic in that environment.
The finish is silver. The specs are identical to the black version. The price is $287 lower. For a Ram 6.4-foot bed operator making the finish decision, that is the complete picture.
