The BEDSLIDE 1500 MAX Extension in 75" x 48" is the version of this tray for people who are tired of climbing into the bed. Where the Classic, Contractor and Heavy Duty trays run out to 75% of their length, the MAX runs out to 100%: the deck clears the tailgate completely, so the far end of the load finishes up in front of you rather than an arm's reach inside the truck. It carries 1,500 lb evenly distributed on a WEATHERDECK composite deck with BEDTRAX rails, four D-ring tie-downs and the full perimeter guardrail kit included, and it rides on heavy duty cam-follower bearings with a hard latch so it will hold that load out at full stretch. The trade is height and weight: the MAX sits on a 7" profile rather than the 4.5" of the other series, and at 380 lb it is a two person install. It is offered in the Black Edition finish only, and it is covered by a 5 year warranty rather than the lifetime-with-registration term the other BEDSLIDE series carry.

Features

1,500 lb of Evenly Distributed Capacity
The 1500 MAX Extension is rated to carry 1,500 lb spread across the deck. Evenly distributed is the operative phrase and it is worth reading literally: the rating assumes the load is spread over the tray rather than stacked on one corner or concentrated over the extended end. Loaded that way, this tray will take tools, materials and site gear on a working truck.

100% Full Extension, Not Three Quarters
This is what separates a MAX from the rest of the BEDSLIDE range. The deck runs all the way out, clear of the tailgate, so the far end of the tray finishes up where you are standing instead of still inside the bed. Everything on the deck becomes reachable without climbing in, which is the whole point if you load heavy or work out of the truck all day. The other BEDSLIDE series extend 75%.

WEATHERDECK Composite Deck
The deck is BEDSLIDE's own WEATHERDECK composite rather than plywood or bare steel. It lives outdoors for its entire life, so it is built not to swell, rot or de-laminate when it gets rained on, loaded wet or hosed out. It also takes a textured surface that stops light loads sliding around on the tray.

BEDTRAX Rails and Four D-Ring Tie-Downs
BEDTRAX T-slot rails run the length of the deck with four D-ring tie-downs supplied, so you can strap a load down properly instead of hoping it stays put. The rails also take the BEDSLIDE accessory range, including the BedBin storage boxes, if you want to divide the tray up later.

Full Perimeter Guardrail Included
The guardrail kit is in the box, not an upsell. It runs the full perimeter of the deck, so loose cargo stays on the tray while it is moving and while it is running in and out.

Heavy Duty Cam-Follower Bearings and a Hard Latch
The MAX runs heavy duty cam-follower bearings with a hard latch system, which is what lets it hold a rated load at full extension rather than only when the deck is home. It locks in multiple positions, so you can run it part way out and leave it there.

Made in the USA and Backed for the Long Term
BEDSLIDE builds these in the USA. The MAX Extension range carries a 5 year warranty. Note that the lifetime registration upgrade offered on the other BEDSLIDE series does not apply to MAX models, so the 5 year term is the term.

Fitment & Compatibility

Requirement	Detail
Tray size	● 75" x 48" outer dimensions, handle included
Bed floor needed	● A clear bed floor that will take a 75" x 48" tray
Profile height	● 7" of bed floor height is taken up by the slide
Fitment method	● Matched by bed size, not by a vehicle specific kit
Published make and model chart	● BEDSLIDE does not publish one for the MAX Extension range

Fit guidance: BEDSLIDE's Application Guide covers the Classic, Contractor and Heavy Duty series and does not carry a make and model chart for the MAX Extension range, so there are no MAX rows to show, and another series' rows would not tell you the truth about this tray. Fit this tray by measuring: if your bed floor takes a 75" x 48" tray and you can give up 7" of bed height, this MAX will go in. BEDSLIDE sizes are OUTER dimensions, they include the handle, and the trays are built to a .25" tolerance. Measure the inside of your own bed floor before ordering rather than relying on the model year alone, because bed liners, bed mats, wheel well intrusions and factory tie-down hardware all change the space a tray actually has to sit in.

Installation

Type: Bolt-in to the truck bed floor · Time: About 1 hour · Tools: Socket set, drill and bits for a standard drill-in installation, tape measure, and a second person to lift the tray into the bed · Difficulty: Intermediate. BEDSLIDE recommends having a dealer carry out the installation

Measure the inside of the bed floor and dry fit the rails before committing to any holes. BEDSLIDE specifically advises against installing over a bed liner, because liners vary in thickness and profile and the tray may need adjusting to sit flat and run true. On an aluminum bed, use BEDSLIDE's aluminum bed kit, part BSA-HALUMKT: fastening steel directly to an aluminum bed invites galvanic corrosion, and BEDSLIDE's warranty excludes corrosion caused by improper installation. The tray weighs 380 lb, so lift it in with two people and check the deck runs cleanly through its full travel and latches in every position before you load it.

Warranty, Shipping & Returns

Warranty. 5 year warranty from BEDSLIDE, original owner only and not transferable on resale. The MAX Extension range does NOT carry the lifetime-with-registration upgrade that the other BEDSLIDE series offer, so 5 years is the full term. BEDSLIDE excludes misuse, exceeding the rated capacity, corrosion of the steel frame caused by exposure, de-lamination of the deck from water fuel or chemical spills, modifications that alter the design, improper installation, accidents and lack of maintenance.

Free shipping. This item ships free to the lower 48 states. Because it is an oversized item, it ships by freight and typically arrives in 3 to 7 business days.

Inspect on delivery. Please inspect the packaging before signing. If you see any damage, note it on the delivery receipt and contact us right away, and we will make it right.

About BEDSLIDE

BEDSLIDE invented this product category. The company has been building slide-out truck bed cargo trays in the USA since the 1990s, and the design that everyone else copied, a rolling deck on cam-follower bearings that pulls the load out to the tailgate, is theirs. BEDSLIDE is part of the LEER and JB Poindexter family of truck equipment brands, and it is a member of the NTEA, the association for the work truck industry, which is the room its commercial and fleet products are built for.

The range is deliberately narrow and deep. There are four slide series, the 1000 Classic, the 1500 Contractor, the 2000 Heavy Duty and the MAX Extension models, and each one is offered across sixteen deck sizes so the tray matches the bed rather than the bed being asked to accept a compromise. Every slide gets the same core build: a WEATHERDECK composite deck that is made to live outdoors, BEDTRAX T-slot rails with D-ring tie-downs, a full perimeter guardrail kit in the box, and a frame built to be loaded rather than to look loaded. Everything is made in the USA.

Prestige Truck is an authorized BEDSLIDE dealer. Every slide we ship is new, factory packed and covered by the full BEDSLIDE factory warranty, and registering it within 30 days of purchase is what upgrades the standard 5 year cover to the lifetime term on the series that offer it.

BEDSLIDE Specs, Measurements, And Accessories

A run through the measurements that matter before you order, which is the step worth taking seriously here because BEDSLIDE sizes are outer dimensions that include the handle. It also covers the accessory range that mounts to the BEDTRAX rails.

Which BEDSLIDE Is Right For You?

BEDSLIDE comparing the series against each other, by capacity, by extension and by how the tray is built. Useful if you are weighing this model against the heavier or lighter option in the same bed size.

BEDSLIDE Reach Anything

The practical argument for a slide, filmed rather than written: the load comes to you instead of you climbing into the bed to reach it. Worth two minutes if you have never used one.

Frequently Asked Questions

Straight answers on specs, fit and support

Will the 75" x 48" fit my truck?

BEDSLIDE does not list this size in its published Application Guide chart, so the honest answer is: measure. The 75" x 48" figure is the OUTER dimension of the tray including the handle, built to a .25" tolerance. Measure the inside of your bed floor, allow for a liner or mat if you run one, and compare. We would rather tell you to get a tape measure than invent a fitment list.

What does 100% extension actually mean?

The deck travels its full length, which puts the whole tray clear of the tailgate rather than leaving the last quarter of it inside the bed. In practice that means you can reach anything on the slide while standing behind the truck, including whatever is at the very back of the deck. This is what separates the MAX Extension models from the rest of the BEDSLIDE range, which run 75%.

What does 1,500 lb capacity actually mean?

It means 1,500 lb spread evenly across the deck, which is how BEDSLIDE rates it and how the bearings are designed to see the load. It does not mean 1,500 lb stacked on one corner, and it does not mean 1,500 lb concentrated on the end of the deck at full extension, which is the worst case for any slide. Load it flat and load it spread out and this tray will do the rated number all day. Overloading it, or point loading it, is one of the things BEDSLIDE's warranty specifically excludes.

How does the warranty work?

The MAX Extension models carry a 5 year warranty, for the original owner only, and that is the full term. The lifetime upgrade that BEDSLIDE offers on registering its other series within 30 days does not apply to MAX models, so please do not buy this one expecting lifetime cover. Cover does not transfer if you sell the truck. BEDSLIDE excludes misuse, exceeding the rated capacity, corrosion of the steel frame caused by exposure, de-lamination of the deck from water fuel or chemical spills, modifications that alter the design, improper installation, accidents and lack of maintenance.

How hard is it to install?

Reckon on about an hour, and get a second pair of hands because the tray weighs 380 lb and wants to go in square. It is a bolt-in installation into the bed floor. BEDSLIDE recommends a dealer install, and there are two traps worth knowing about: installing over a bed liner is not recommended because liners vary and the tray may need adjusting to sit right, and on an aluminum bed you need BEDSLIDE's aluminum bed kit, part BSA-HALUMKT, or the dissimilar metals will corrode.

Is this available in the Silver finish?

This size is offered in the Black Edition finish only in this series. If you want a bright anodized Silver tray, check the other sizes in this series or the 1000 Classic range, which carries Silver across most of its sizes.
