Best bed slide

[The Colonel]

I'm trying to decide on a bed slide but am scratching my head. Bed slide or bed glide, cargo glide, glide ease. Does anyone have experience. Worried a bit about add weight too

I have various suppliers for many many types of hardware, as well as numerous years in the fabrication business. Explain what you are trying to achieve in what location?

I have used a couple of these on service vehicles over the years. 1000 lbs isn't much on your example- I would consider that light duty but we ran welders that weighed more than that. I'd buy name brand, not Chinese, with the best warranty. Just my 2 cents.

I had a "Bed Slide" installed in my 2006 Chevy 2500 HD over 11 years ago. It has worked perfect. It makes for easy loading/unloading of camping equipment and a great place to set a generator. Just extend the slide out to it's first stop/lock and fire it up. No more crawling up into the bed to get something in the back. I picked up 2 large black plastic storage boxes that set on the slide which helps keep all the cargo organized and secure (out of sight/out of mind). There have been numerous enhancements over the years since I got mine, but I'm very happy with the one I have. Check them out.

Thx, the generator part is what I was thinking.

In another thread, Wilbur McLamb spoke highly of the Highway Products XT 2000 FYI.

I use the top of a large plastic box. I set the generators on the plastic top. When I need the generators I pull on the plastic top and everything slides out. Works great for me for two Honda 2000s in the bed of a 2015 F250 with a 3/8" horse trailer mat. There is a piece of wood separating the generators so they don't bang against each other.

I'm seriously considering a "Decked" unit. A 2000 lb capacity deck 12 inches up from the truck bed, with two large drawers under it and a storage compartment in each corner.

I have a cap, and everything I load in the truck will still fit on the 'deck'. Drawers will be for water hoses, cables, adapters, and all the other errata that tends to clutter things up.
