Fitment, Shipping & Product Support
Verified Fitment
This slide fits full-size trucks with a 6.5-foot bed across five makes, but fitment is generation-specific. Year ranges are hard limits — not guidelines. The two most critical boundaries: the 2019+ Silverado/Sierra 6.5' bed takes a different SKU, and Ram stopped offering a 6.5' bed after 2001. Confirm your exact bed length and model year before ordering.
| Make | Model | Confirmed Years | Bed Length | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chevrolet | Silverado | 1970–2018 | 6.5 ft / 6.6 ft | 2019+ Silverado 6.5' bed requires SKU 15-7848-CGB (78") |
| GMC | Sierra | 1970–2018 | 6.5 ft / 6.6 ft | 2019+ Sierra 6.5' bed requires SKU 15-7848-CGB (78") |
| Ram | 1500 / 2500 / 3500 | 1981–2001 | 6.5 ft | 2002+ Ram moved to 6.4' bed — requires SKU 15-7348-CGB (73") |
| Ford | F-150 / F-Series | 1970–current | 6.5 ft | 2015+ F-150 aluminum bed requires BSA-HALUMKT |
| Ford | F-250 / F-350 (pre-Super Duty) | 1970–1998 | 6.5 ft | 1999+ Super Duty 6.9' bed requires SKU 15-7948-CGB (78") |
| Nissan | Titan | 2004–current | 6.5 ft | All cab configurations with 6.5' bed |
| Toyota | Tundra | 2007–current | 6.5 ft | Double Cab only — CrewMax 5.5' bed requires SKU 15-6347-CGB |
Fitment is bed-length dependent. Engine, fuel type, and drivetrain do not restrict this fitment. Confirm exact bed interior length and model year before ordering.

Critical Compatibility
| System / Condition | Interaction | Action Required |
|---|---|---|
| 2019+ Silverado / Sierra generation split | This is the single most common fitment error for this SKU. The 2019+ GM 6.5' bed interior requires the 78" platform (15-7848-CGB). Ordering 15-7548-CGB for a 2019+ GM truck results in a non-returnable fitment error. | Confirm model year is 2018 or earlier before ordering this SKU for a GM truck. |
| Ram 2002+ — no 6.5' bed exists | Ram discontinued the 6.5' bed after 2001. A 2002+ Ram buyer looking for a 6.5' bed has either measured incorrectly or is confused about bed length designation. The 2002+ Ram comes in 5.7', 6.4', or 8'. | Verify Ram bed length independently before ordering. Text (469) 407-7538 if unsure. |
| Aluminum truck beds (2015+ Ford F-150) | Steel slide frame in direct contact with aluminum bed rails causes galvanic corrosion. | Purchase BSA-HALUMKT separately. Do not install without it on an aluminum bed. |
| Tundra Double Cab vs. CrewMax | Both are listed as "Tundra" but carry different bed lengths. Double Cab = 6.5' bed (this SKU). CrewMax = 5.5' bed (requires 15-6347-CGB). Ordering wrong based on model name alone results in a non-returnable fitment error. | Confirm bed length is 6.5 feet, not cab configuration name only. |
| Spray-in / drop-in bedliners | Installation over bedliners not recommended per Bedslide. Liner thickness and surface vary. | Remove or modify liner before installation. |
| Tailgate with integrated step | Slide may contact an integrated tailgate step when extended. | Purchase BSA-SPACEBLKIT if clearance is insufficient. |
| Tonneau covers and truck caps | No confirmed compatibility data. Cover clearance depends on profile and 4.5-inch deck height addition. | Verify with your cover manufacturer before ordering. |
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. 2017–2019 Ford F-150 owners can add BSA-F150-2017 for a no-drill factory rail mount.
What makes it complex:
- At 170 lb, a second person is required for safe positioning — do not attempt solo.
- 2015+ Ford F-150 aluminum bed owners must install BSA-HALUMKT before mounting the slide. Skipping this step causes corrosion.
- Tundra owners: confirm bed length is 6.5 feet (Double Cab), not 5.5 feet (CrewMax), before proceeding.
- Bedliner presence requires removal or adjustment. 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 steel-bed installations.
Shipping: 75-inch platform ships LTL freight. Residential delivery included. OFAS will contact you after order placement to coordinate delivery.
Common Questions
My Silverado is a 2019 or newer model — does this fit?
No. The 2019 and newer Silverado and Sierra received a redesigned bed with different interior dimensions. The correct SKU for a 2019+ Silverado or Sierra with a 6.5-foot bed is 15-7848-CGB (78" x 48"). Ordering the 75" platform for a 2019+ GM truck results in a non-returnable fitment error. Confirm your model year before ordering.
I have a Ram with a 6.5-foot bed — does this fit?
Only if your Ram is a 2001 or earlier model. Ram discontinued the 6.5-foot bed after 2001 — 2002 and newer Ram trucks come in 5.7-foot, 6.4-foot, or 8-foot configurations. If you believe your 2002+ Ram has a 6.5-foot bed, measure the interior length before ordering. Text (469) 407-7538 and OFAS will confirm the correct SKU for your bed.
I have a Tundra — which bed length do I have?
The Toyota Tundra is available in two bed configurations: the Double Cab with a 6.5-foot bed (this SKU applies) and the CrewMax with a 5.5-foot bed (requires SKU 15-6347-CGB). Check your cab configuration or measure your bed interior before ordering. Ordering based on the Tundra name alone without confirming bed length is the most common Tundra fitment error.
My F-150 has an aluminum bed — do I need anything extra?
Yes — BSA-HALUMKT is required for any 2015 or newer Ford F-150. The steel slide frame in direct contact with the aluminum bed rail causes galvanic corrosion over time. Budget for this kit before purchasing the slide — it is not included.
What is the difference between this and the Heavy Duty 20-7548-HDB?
Both use the same 75" x 48" platform. The Contractor is rated 1,500 lb with a 2+2 bearing configuration. The Heavy Duty is rated 2,000 lb with a 4 cam-follower bearing configuration — all four positions are cam-follower, versus the Contractor's 2 cam-follower plus 2 ball roller guides. If your loads consistently approach or exceed 1,500 lb, the Heavy Duty tier is the correct choice.
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 full-size truck owner running a pre-2019 Silverado or Sierra, a 2001-or-earlier Ram, a current F-150 or F-Series, a current Nissan Titan, or a 2007-and-newer Tundra Double Cab with a 6.5-foot bed who needs 1,500 lb contractor-tier capacity in black. The year boundaries on the GM and Ram applications are the two most return-causing errors on this platform — order wrong and you have a 170 lb non-returnable slide that does not fit.
It is not for the 2019-or-newer GM truck owner — that generation requires the 78" platform. It is not for any Ram built after 2001 — that truck does not have a 6.5-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 2,000 lb capacity is a job requirement, the Heavy Duty tier (20-7548-HDB) is available on the same 75" x 48" platform.
At 170 lb with cam-follower bearings, WeatherDeck composite decking, and a BedTrax T-slot organization system, this is a purpose-built contractor tool for the trucks and bed lengths it was designed for.
