2018 F150 BedSlide Install Review (Painful)

[@thomasrossi31]

When you’re speaking about the forward storage bins... you were on the wrong side... you were referencing the LEFT side on the instructions, but you pointed to the RIGHT side of the bed. I think the instruction are correct.

after 2 years, still happy with the unit?

[@8michael7]

Yes. Works well and had no problems.

[@skipdup]

@@8michael7 Thanks man!!

[@garretlewis4103]

I can empathize with your frustration. I am thinking about getting one of these for my 2016 Colorado. These things are not cheap when you get all of the accessories to go with it. Looking at about $1,900.00 for my truck with the special (no drill) mount and the rail and cubbies you have. Thanks for the review/information on the installation.

[@sammy50001]

Well they *did* say the *product* was made in America -- not the instructions.

[@gdp4524]

Would you buy the one that pulls completely out if you had to do it over again ?

[@8michael7]

Yea probably most likely

[@jordanolthoff7851]

I am looking at getting a bedslide. They look awesome. The one I'm looking at is used. I will.need to get the ford non drill mounts. But dont want to spend 300 on them when I can weld them for alot cheaper. Wondering about measurements on the bracket. Thanks.

[@MrJansenmike]

I think the sticker things are made to go between the steel and aluminum parts so they won’t corrode the dissimilar metals

[@dsykes1800]

Exactly. Spacers.

[@kato2182]

im having the same problems opening and closing but i do the exact same thing you do

[@garretlewis4103]

Any update on how you like it?

[@8michael7]

So far it works great. I enjoy it very much. Makes it alot easier accessing things with the cap.

[@garretlewis4103]

Thrashing Outdoors Thanks for the update. Still haven’t purchased one for my truck yet.

[@caitymoran]

I agree that these are horribly written instructions, mine came without instructions at all -- Looks like 'Step 5' is repeating steps 2-4 on the second set of brackets. Still very poorly written and described...

[@governmentcheese2257]

hows it working after a couple months of use? would you buy it again?

[@8michael7]

Government Cheese actually it’s holding up well. I have stacked some serious weight on it and it got a soup can wedged under it but still works like it did the first day.

[@kato2182]

i would buy this again yeah the opening and closing gotta put some weight behind your pushing nothing that really bugs me i can deal with that but over all the it serves its purpose very well its simple and i cant live with out it now 👍
