Got my bed slide installed. I sold the decked system as it just made it too tight inside between decked system and camper roof. I am loving this slide. It's rated at 1500 lbs and slides real smoothly . My boxes I had already seem to fit it well.
I also installed my new table from front runner with the slides for under the rack. Got the biggest table they offer with free slides over their Labor Day sale. Nice stuff except table legs need to be taller. Table seems to be too low.

What bedslide is that?

Cool, thanks! We have a friend who recently bought a truck and she's having a bit of a hard time reaching stuff that shakes its way to the front of the bed while driving. A bed slide should solve that problem for her. Is 1500 the model # or the MSRP in $$$?

Nicely done - love what you've done with the truck so far. I have a '14 Silverado in nearly that same color. I installed a Rough County leveling kit, 275/70-18 Nitto Trail Grapplers and the Go-Rhino Dominator 2s side steps. I want to install Front Runner's roof rack on the cab of my truck and slimeline II in the bed. Eventually want to install a RTT. Initially thought about the drawer system (for hunting also) but now seeing the slider I think I'll go that route.
What else do you have in mind?? Again, nicely done!!

Thank you. I am really enjoying the half ton set up not too big not to small... The front runner rack is awesome and I really like the slide over the drawer system. I cAn fit much more in my boxes over the drawer system. Now to be clear the slide combo with she'll probably makes it better system because the drawers and she'll room didn't leave a lot of room to crawl around.
Right now I am thinking 18 in fuel beast wheels with as big tire as I can fit ... Toyo at or bfg ko2 ... What's biggest tire you can fit with leveling kit? I saw your side listed any rubbing? Could gone bigger?
My dream would be icon suspension stage 4 system... You get one let me know

Thanks petit... I am trying put a lot of thought into it versus just bolting on stuff. I'd like to do a different side step and suspension package... But time and money right .
It just those side steps are really really low and without a life did I say they are really really low ?
The way gmc does their wheel wells does not leave a lot of room for a much taller wider tire either. Wish they had redesigned that a little more to increase size without cutting up wheel well plastic covers.
Anyone with suggestions? I have ordered 18 x 9 rims ( fuel beasts) but held off on tires until I decide what to do.
