Fitment, Shipping & Product Support
Verified Fitment
This slide fits the 2019 and newer Chevrolet Silverado 1500 and GMC Sierra 1500 with the 6.5-foot standard bed. The 78-inch platform was developed 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 for the 6.5-foot GM bed is 15-7548-CGB (75" x 48").
| Make | Model | Confirmed Years | Bed Length | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Chevrolet | Silverado 1500 | 2019–current | 6.5 ft | All cab configurations with 6.5' bed |
| GMC | Sierra 1500 | 2019–current | 6.5 ft | All cab configurations with 6.5' bed |
Fitment is bed-length and generation dependent. Confirm your model year and bed length before ordering. The 2019+ Silverado/Sierra is also available with a 5.8-foot short bed — that application takes 15-6848-CGB (68" x 48").

| Item | Notes |
|---|---|
| BSA-GM7895 no-drill kit | This kit fits 2019+ Silverado/Sierra 6.6'/8' beds but is not compatible with the Contractor tier — it is rated for Classic (1,000 lb) and S-model Bedslides only. Drilling is required for this SKU. Do not purchase BSA-GM7895 expecting it to work with 15-7848-CGB. |
| BSA-SPACEBLKIT tailgate step clearance kit | Required if slide does not clear the tailgate or truck has a MultiPro/MultiFlex integrated step. Sold separately. |

| Professional installation labor | Dealer installation recommended — labor not included. |
Critical Compatibility
| System / Condition | Interaction | Action Required |
|---|---|---|
| 2019+ Silverado/Sierra generation split | This is the only Bedslide Contractor SKU for the 2019+ GM 1500 6.5-foot bed. Pre-2019 GM 6.5'/6.6' beds take 15-7548-CGB (75"). Ordering wrong results in a non-returnable fitment error. | Confirm model year is 2019 or newer before ordering. |
| BSA-GM7895 no-drill kit — NOT compatible with this SKU | Bedslide explicitly states the no-drill kit is for Classic (1,000 lb) and S-model Bedslides only. It is not rated for the Contractor 1,500 lb platform. Drilling four ½-inch holes is required for this installation. | Do not purchase BSA-GM7895 for use with 15-7848-CGB. Budget for drilling during installation. |
| MultiPro Tailgate (GMC Sierra) / MultiFlex Tailgate (Chevrolet Silverado) | Multi-function tailgates include integrated step panels. Slide may contact the step mechanism when extended. | Purchase BSA-SPACEBLKIT if clearance is insufficient. Test tailgate operation with slide extended before finalizing mount 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 data. Cover clearance depends on profile and 4.5-inch deck height addition. | Verify with your cover manufacturer before ordering. |
| Silverado/Sierra 2500HD / 3500HD | HD trucks with 6.5-foot beds have different interior dimensions than 1500 — fitment not confirmed for this SKU. | Text (469) 407-7538 before ordering for HD applications. |
No confirmed electrical, ADAS, 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. This is not a no-drill installation — the BSA-GM7895 no-drill kit is incompatible with the Contractor tier. This is a permanent bed modification.
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:
- Drilling four ½-inch holes into the bed floor is permanent. Center the unit 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.
- At 190 lb, a second person is required for safe positioning.
- MultiPro / MultiFlex tailgate owners must confirm step panel clearance before finalizing mount position.
- Bedliner presence requires removal or adjustment before install.
Post-install: No alignment, calibration, or dealer visit required. Cycle the slide under partial load and confirm all locking positions engage before full-load use.
Shipping: 78-inch platform ships LTL freight. Residential delivery included. OFAS will contact you after order placement to coordinate delivery.
Common Questions
I saw a no-drill kit suggested with this slide. Can I use it?
No. The BSA-GM7895 no-drill kit for 2019+ Silverado/Sierra is explicitly rated for Classic (1,000 lb) and S-model Bedslides only — it is not compatible with the Contractor tier. Bedslide's own product page for the no-drill kit states this restriction. Drilling four ½-inch holes is required for the 15-7848-CGB. If avoiding bed modification is a priority, the Classic tier (10-7848-CLB) on the same platform is compatible with the no-drill kit.
My Silverado is a 2018 — does anything fit it?
The 2018 and earlier Silverado/Sierra 6.5'/6.6' bed takes the 75" x 48" platform — SKU 15-7548-CGB. The 2019 generation redesign changed the bed interior dimensions, which is why these are separate SKUs.
I have a Sierra with the MultiPro Tailgate. Will this work?
The MultiPro Tailgate's inner step panel deploys inward from the tailgate face. When the slide is extended, step panel proximity must be confirmed. BSA-SPACEBLKIT resolves clearance issues. Have your installer confirm clearance before finalizing the mount position, or test tailgate operation with the slide extended.
Is there a Heavy Duty 2,000 lb option for the 2019+ Silverado/Sierra 6.5-foot bed?
Text (469) 407-7538 to confirm current availability of a Heavy Duty SKU for the 78" x 48" platform — OFAS will verify before your order ships.
What is the difference between this and the Classic 10-7848-CLB?
Same 78" x 48" platform. The Classic is rated 1,000 lb and is compatible with the BSA-GM7895 no-drill kit. The Contractor is rated 1,500 lb but requires drilling — the no-drill kit does not work with this tier. If avoiding bed drilling matters more than the capacity increase, the Classic 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 2019-and-newer Silverado 1500 or Sierra 1500 owner with a 6.5-foot bed who needs 1,500 lb contractor-tier capacity in black and is prepared for a drilled installation. The 78-inch platform is the correct fit for the post-2019 GM bed interior — the pre-2019 6.5'/6.6' bed takes the 75" platform, and these are not interchangeable.
It is not for the buyer who wants to avoid drilling — the no-drill kit exists for this application but is incompatible with the Contractor tier. If avoiding a permanent bed modification is a priority, the Classic tier (10-7848-CLB) on the same 78" x 48" platform is no-drill compatible at 1,000 lb capacity. It is not for the 2018-or-earlier GM truck owner — that truck takes 15-7548-CGB. And it is not for the buyer who needs full tailgate extension: the 75% travel is fixed in the Contractor tier.
At 190 lb with a 2+4 bearing configuration, WeatherDeck composite deck, and BedTrax T-slot organization system, this is a purpose-built contractor tool for one specific application — the 2019+ GM 1500 6.5-foot bed.
