R1T - bed extender that slides -- options?

[Tucker74]

I don't think you can without disassembly. The R1T bed glider does still allow access to spare tire compartment. Although at $1749($1,486.65 with 15% discount), oh well.

I don’t see much value out of the bed glider for my use, have had ARB drawers in several Land Cruisers and found them really useful. You can store a ton of gear securely and still have “open space” for daily cargo. Tire compartment is a pretty big loss here though -

Hi Greg, I have one of these EV Sportline extenders, and one of the great features of it is the quick release pins that hold it into the 'no drill' mounting brackets. So with the added hassle of pulling the two release pins, then lifting it ~1 inch, sliding it out and inverting it then replacing those retaining pins. I'd take photo's but Rivian have my R1T... Though they did loan me a Gen 1 quad... ?

This might work then! Can you send me pictures or a video? My cell is (760) 846-6355

Greg, my Rivian is still at the service center, today they are removing the HV battery looking for the rattle they installed! Here is the EV Sportline site, where you can see one photo which shows the quick attachment pin I referenced (though not good detail..): https://evsportline.com/products/ri...IPZSFf5AUlsS3997YGGv82NyXDWXaHN9lqbtbm342YQCj Here is the installation video, where starting at 9 minutes shows how that quick release pin works: Hope this helps!!

How difficult is it to remove the pins? Mind taking a video for me to demonstrate? Much appreciated!

The pins are a spring loaded ball one end, and a spring loop at the other end (like a key ring). You just put a finger in the spring loop and pull it out. I'll try getting a video later and send it to you!
