1500 Contractor for Chevrolet Silverado 2500 (6'10" Bed) by BedSlide

The larger of the two 1500 Contractor options for the Silverado 2500's 6'10" tray, this 78" x 48" slide turns the whole bed into a 3/4-ton drawer you pull out rather than climb into. Built for tradies running tools daily and weekend loads of camping gear in equal measure, it carries 1,500 lb (675 kg) evenly distributed with 75% extension.

Guardrails and a full-width grab bar keep everything contained and accessible from either side, and BedTrax T-slots with D-ring tie-downs give you a proper anchor point for straps or a sports rack. Heavy-duty cam-follower bearings and a hard latch system are built for daily use, not just occasional trips.

Planning to load it out near capacity? Check your Silverado's payload first, since you may need a GVM upgrade to stay legal at the 1,500 lb rating.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are truck bed slides worth the investment?

A slide rated for 3/4-ton drawer-style storage earns its keep on job sites and weekend loads alike, since it brings gear to the tailgate rather than making you climb in for it.

Do I need a GVM upgrade to use the full 1,500 lb capacity?

If loading near the rated 1,500 lb (675 kg) capacity, you may need a GVM upgrade to keep your Silverado within legal payload. Check your compliance plate and consult a licensed installer if unsure.

How long does installation take?

Around 1 hour. Dealer installation is recommended, and fitting over an existing bedliner isn't recommended since bedliners vary.

What are the bearings rated for?

Two 3,282 lb (1,477 kg) static-rated cam-follower bearings on the load-bearing end, plus four sealed ball roller guide bearings.

What's the extension percentage of the 1500 Contractor?

75%, giving you access from the bedside to the tailgate.

Can I fit it over a bedliner?

Installing over a bedliner isn't recommended, as adjustments may be needed and bedliners vary in thickness.

Does the 1500 Contractor fit racks or accessories?

Yes, BedTrax T-slots let you organise and attach sports racks alongside the tie-down system.

Why Shop at 4x4 Down Under?

We know that you have a lot of options out there, and we’re incredibly grateful that you’re considering spending your hard earned money with us. We like to think we stand out from the crowd in a few ways.

Excellent & Honest Service

We try and provide the best pre and after sales service possible. If you have a question we’re here to help, and if we don’t know the answer we’ll tell you and then do our absolute best to find the answer for you. We’re also here to guide you to the best possible outcome for you. A lot of stores will simply try to up-sell you on the most expensive option. That’s not how we operate. We want to build a relationship with our customers, and the only way to do that is by being honest and direct.

4x4 Down Under is built on honesty and integrity. For example when you make a purchase with us we only charge your account once we confirm the product is ready for dispatch. Although we like to guarantee everything on our store is available we’re not perfect and mistakes do happen. If something turns out to not be available we’ll let you know immediately and you have the option to cancel your order or wait for more stock to arrive. Should you not want to wait the order is voided, and there’s no waiting a week to get your money back (it’s instant!).

Aussie and Proud!

We're Australians, and we like to support our fellow Australians, which is why all our products are sourced locally from the official Australian distributors. Nothing is imported directly and we don't stock any grey imports. This also means that all manufacturer warranties are fully honored by the brands themselves.

No Sales Gimmicks 

When you shop at 4x4 Down Under you don’t have to worry about:
  • Annoying and dishonest ’Sales Timers’ that simply reset every few hours and are there to coerce you into buying.
  • Dishonest “low stock” labels, another coercive sales gimmick.
  • False “John just bought a…” alerts. Our customer alerts (bottom left) are 100% true and we're proud of them.
  • Being bombarded by trust badges and labels everywhere you look that mean nothing. 
  • We don't spam! Your information is safe with us. It will never be shared or sold, or used to fill your inbox with garbage.

Fast Shipping with Insurance!

We've partnered with some of Australia's best couriers and freight agents to ensure your purchase reaches you in super-quick time. Once your order has been dispatched you'll receive tracking information which will allow you to track your order online every step of the way. And if something should happen to your order while in transit you can rest assured that it's insured and you won't lose a dime!

If you still have any doubts feel free to give us a call on 1300 76 86 41, or contact us here. We'd love to hear from you.
