R1T - bed extender that slides -- options?

[gcgould81]

Does anyone make a bed extender that slides in and out of the bed? The flip out ones are pointless if you plan to use your cross bars and have accessory’s mounted to them.
I have accessory’s mounted on my crossbars such as recovery boards and a road shower. You should be able to slide the extender out when the tailgate is down and then be able to slide it back inside the bed when not using it. Idk just my two cents

I want to say yes, but I don't know the name of it so I'm not much help. I have seen it on this forum before though. The search function leaves something to be desired but give it a shot and see if you can find it.

Hey there Greg! Yes, @EV Sportline makes one. Its a great product at a reasonable price. I have a link on my website. Product works great. Note, if you plan to use the under bed storage make sure you install it without the spacers...otherwise the mount will block the under bed compartment from opening.

This one still requires you to remove the cross bars in order to flip out the extender, no?

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... ?

ReadyRamp is a combo ramp/extender that doesn't flip, just clips in.

Oh wow thanks! I’ll check it out!

The Rivian should probably take their small one, not full size. Even though it's a full size truck, it has a slimmer bed than the ICE trucks.

Thanks! I will call EV Sportline on Monday and ask them.

Anything that’s blocking yes. Mine had the tri folding tonneau from Lomax and it had to be moved slightly to allow it to flip out. Wasn’t really an issue for me as I used the extender infrequently. If you have power tonneau it’s not really a issue..

It looks really cool, wonder how hard it would be to remove to get to spare ?

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.
