Who wants BedSlides??? 08/16-08/23

Appreciate it Ed!

 

She arrived today! Total cost for me was 1200! After I got it across the border, and paid my taxes on it! Considering there normally 1300+ taxes, it was a deal!

Oh and my bed box is the correct size!
However packageing was a little excessive...

 

It doesn't look like you've assembled your bedslide deck just yet. Once you do, can you take another pic of your bin on it? Should look more like this:



Here are a few more pics for reference (too lazy to take the spare tire off so these pics should do):

 

Ok, your right.



I'll go back to my Hobbit hole now....

 

Lol, no need to hide...just wanted to confirm further.

Wait a minute, does yours fit between your wheel wells though? I mean, are you able to access the bedslide with the bin on it? Or will the bin hit the wheel wells?

I was in a hurry when I installed my bedslide yesterday that I didn't get to play with different configurations. Just installed it and called it a day.

 

I only quickly placed it there, however it seems like it would slide like normal, and not hit anything. I'm thinking of drilling 2 holes and using a T-nut to fasten it there.

 

you just ordered only the bed slide? and it cost 1300?

 

Canadian currency.

we really get the shit end of the pricing stick.

The slide was $980
Getting across the border cost $50 in shipping
and $180 in taxes.

basically its $1000 USD

yeah, Canada really, really, REALLY, sucks sometimes

 

how long did it take u guys to install this bad mama jama. Ed did you forget me lol.

 

about 2-3 hours for me. watch where you put the rivnuts, make sure you don't land on one of the fibreglass ribs.

 

Just about an hour for me...no fiberglass ribs for me to worry about. Just sat the bedslide in the truck, measured, marked, drilled and bolted down. Had to remove an L track and a d ring from the bed before install though.

 

I suppose 2nd gens might be different from 3'd gens. I almost hit one on the back 2 bolts. I have a 2017 DCSB for reference.

Also the bed bin just bairly sneaks past my wheel wells. Less then an 1/8" of clearence on each side.

 

Those bins look like full-size bed versions to me.

 

According to the

Looks like there's only one size available...

 

Not sure on the 2nd gens but on my old 1st gen I just drilled through metal...2002 Extra Cab with 6 ft bed.

At least it clears...I still haven't checked to see if mine does. I do like your idea of figuring out a way to mount it on the T slots (should be easy enough).

 

Hmmm. I'm out of ideas then.

@ZERT-Tacoma915 ?

 

looks like it's easy enough to chop them up and bolt the shorter box back together

 

Right now guys on the Bins I am awaiting for them to respond to me. Just a FYI.

 

Wow wish I would have gotten in on this. :-(

 

thanks for posting the bed bins, i was on the fence about snagging one due to size difference but i guess ill pull the trigger
