Things to Consider when Choosing a Truck Bed Slide

Truck bed slides are a handy addition to any pickup, significantly easing cargo loading and unloading. However, there are several brands, models, and sizes on the market. To ease your decision, consider the following factors.

Bed Size

How large is your pickupā€™s bed? And how much of the bedā€™s cargo space would you like the slide to take up? While bed slides come in several sizes, most consumers will benefit from the largest possible bed slide they can fit into their pickupā€™s bed (i.e., an 8-ft. slide for an 8-ft. bed, a 6-ft. slide for a 6-ft. bed, and so on). Regardless of your preference, measure your pickupā€™s bed before placing an order to ensure a perfect fit.

Weight Capacity

Regarding weight capacity, consider the limits of the bed slide and your pickupā€™s payload capacity. While itā€™s nice to have a bed slide with a high weight capacity, youā€™ll have to consider the weight of the slide compared to your pickupā€™s payload. After all, thereā€™s no point in having a bed slide with a 2,000-lb. capacity if your truck can only handle 1,000 pounds.

Material

Depending on your needs, expectations, and climate, you may have preferences regarding your bed slideā€™s construction. A lightweight aluminum bed slide may be best for half-ton or mid-size pickups, while rugged steel constructions may better suit heavy-duty trucks.

Security FeaturesĀ 

While some bed slides are low-tech, others feature various security and safety features like automatic locks, side rails, and non-skid decking. Before placing an order, determine which features are vital to you and verify that your selected bed slide includes them.

Specialty Features

While all bed slides serve a similar purpose, some arenā€™t merely sliding alloy panels retrofitted into a pickupā€™s bed. Some models offer unique specialty features to refine operation, including the DECKED Truck Bed Storage System and the Cargo Ease Cargo Ramps.

Maintaining Your Truck Bed Slide

While most truck bed slides feature sealed bearings, corrosion-resistant frames, and maintenance-free decks, itā€™s still wise to routinely clean and inspect the moving parts for damage/excess dirt and debris. Every so often, inspect the rails for excess dirt, grease, or corrosion, clear any debris wedged beneath the deck, and inspect moving parts for any excessive wear.Ā 

Truck Bed Slide FAQs

How much weight can a truck bed slide carry?Ā 

Depending on the brand and model, bed slide cargo capacities can varyā€”however, most can carry between 1,000ā€“2,000 pounds.Ā 

How long does a truck bed slide last?Ā 

While this question is highly subjective, a cargo slide thatā€™s used responsibly and according to the manufacturer's instructions should last indefinitely.Ā 

How difficult is installing a truck bed slide?Ā 

While not exceptionally challenging, installing a truck bed slide typically requires drilling holes into the bed floor. Additionally, due to the bed slide's sizable dimensions and heavy weight, itā€™s best to have an extra set of hands.
