Fitment, Shipping & Product Support

Verified Fitment

This slide fits the Ford F-250 Super Duty and Ford F-350 Super Duty with a 6.9-foot (short) bed, confirmed model years 1999 through current. The 79-inch platform was built specifically for the Super Duty 6.9-foot bed interior introduced with the 1999 Super Duty platform. Pre-1999 F-250 and F-350 had a 6.5-foot bed — those applications take the 75" x 48" platform (15-7548-CGB).

Make Model Confirmed Years Bed Length Notes
Ford F-250 Super Duty 1999–current 6.9 ft All cab configurations with 6.9' bed
Ford F-350 Super Duty 1999–current 6.9 ft SRW confirmed — DRW see Field 3

Fitment is bed-length dependent. Engine, fuel type, drivetrain, and cab configuration do not restrict this fitment provided the bed measures 6.9 feet. Confirm bed length before ordering — Super Duty is also available with an 8-foot long bed (SKU 15-9548-CGB).

Critical Compatibility

System / Condition Interaction Action Required
F-350 DRW rear axle Bedslide's application guide lists Super Duty 6.9' bed without SRW/DRW qualification. DRW rear axle width and wheel well profile may differ from SRW in ways that affect bed interior width at the mounting rail location. Text (469) 407-7538 before ordering if your F-350 is a dually.
Super Duty aluminum bed components Most Super Duty trucks use steel beds, but some configurations may include aluminum components or rails. Steel slide frame in direct contact with aluminum surfaces causes galvanic corrosion. Confirm bed material before ordering. Purchase BSA-HALUMKT if aluminum contact is present.
Tailgate with integrated step Super Duty tailgate step accessories may contact the slide 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.
Pre-1999 F-250 / F-350 Pre-Super Duty F-250/F-350 carried a 6.5-foot bed — that is a different platform (15-7548-CGB). The 79" platform does not fit pre-1999 Ford trucks. Confirm model year is 1999 or newer before ordering.

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 on most applications. Four ½-inch holes required in the truck bed floor. This is a permanent bed modification. No confirmed no-drill kit exists for the Super Duty 6.9-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 200 lb, two people are required for safe positioning — do not attempt solo.
  • 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.
  • Confirm bed material before installing. If aluminum components are present, BSA-HALUMKT must be installed before mounting the slide.
  • Bedliner presence requires removal or adjustment before install.
  • 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: 79-inch platform ships LTL freight. Residential delivery included. OFAS will contact you after order placement to coordinate delivery.


Common Questions

What years does this fit?
The 1999 and newer Ford F-250 and F-350 Super Duty with the 6.9-foot bed. The Super Duty platform launched in 1999 — that's when the 6.9-foot bed and 79-inch interior dimension were introduced. Pre-1999 F-250 and F-350 had a 6.5-foot bed and take the 75" x 48" platform (15-7548-CGB).

My F-350 is a DRW dually — does this fit?
Bedslide's application guide lists F-350 Super Duty 6.9' bed without specifying SRW or DRW. The concern with DRW is whether the dual rear axle's wheel well profile affects the bed interior at the slide's mounting rail location. OFAS cannot confirm DRW fitment from current source data. Text (469) 407-7538 with your year, model, and configuration before ordering.

What is the difference between this and the Heavy Duty 20-7948-HDB?
Both use the 79" x 48" platform for the same Super Duty 6.9' bed. The Contractor (this SKU) is rated 1,500 lb with a 2+2 bearing configuration. The Heavy Duty (20-7948-HDB) is rated 2,000 lb with 4 cam-follower bearings at both ends. If your loads consistently approach or exceed 1,500 lb, the Heavy Duty tier is the correct choice. If 1,500 lb covers your typical load, the Contractor saves cost without compromising the platform fit.

Does this require drilling?
Yes — four ½-inch holes are required. No confirmed no-drill kit exists for the Super Duty 6.9-foot bed application. This is a permanent bed modification. If your truck is leased, confirm with your leasing company before ordering.

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 1999-and-newer Ford F-250 or F-350 Super Duty contractor or commercial operator with a 6.9-foot bed who needs 1,500 lb capacity in black and is prepared for a drilled installation. The 79-inch platform is the confirmed fit for the Super Duty short bed — it is not cross-applicable to any other make or model, and the 6.9-foot bed length is the only fitment gate that matters.

It is not for the F-150 owner — F-150 applications use different platform sizes across all bed lengths. It is not for the buyer who needs 2,000 lb capacity — the Heavy Duty tier (20-7948-HDB) is available on this same 79" x 48" platform for that requirement. 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, the Classic (10-7948-CLB) delivers the same platform at a lower cost.

At 200 lb with cam-follower bearings, WeatherDeck composite decking, and a BedTrax T-slot organization system, this is a purpose-built contractor tool for the Super Duty short bed — the most widely used commercial truck platform in North America.
