This product looks exciting. Exactly how much height does one lose after install?

Looks really great. Excellent job! If it had the freedom to slide out from either end and also provided a drop down leg for additional support like the oem shuttle promised to do I would be in for say $1600 ... But a one sided thing is a bit too limiting for the use cases I can think of.

How much storage height is lost with the slider installed?

This looks great. Can you share more dimensions? What is the width of the platform, and how much vertical height is available? How much space is there from the forward flat area straight up to the slant on the gear tunnel opening?

This product looks exciting. Exactly how much height does one lose after install?

60" Long, the flat base is 7.75" wide X 2" deep- with the sheet metal is around 14" wide to base of the slant. You lose about 4" from the floor of tunnel to the floor of the slide. See below and let me know if you guys want any more info on dims.

Awesome price and solid-looking product. Any plans to offer modular expansions for the sled? It's screaming for a camp kitchen module!

Yes! We are working on some basic items like dividers and power cord. We are working out ideas for kitchen, but we at least wanted to get the base out now so people can build up however they want

200 pounds at full extension?

Yes

Suggestion: Laser cut some slots in the "pan", so user-configurable tie-downs can be used. Tie downs like this: https://www.amazon.com/moroinriz-Anchor-M8-1-25-Stainless-Holding/dp/B0B1QW9WGF?th=1

I can see folks using your product to hold 3-ton off-road jacks and other overlanding gear. Would be good to keep heavy items as such from moving around in there.

How much storage height is lost with the slider installed?

From the pictures, it seems like A LOT.

Read the title and my first reaction was "Sold".

But, does look like it sucks up quite a bit of the already limited space?

Looks like a quality product, but will have to see some detailed videos before deciding if it's for me

RANGE INDUSTRIES-RIVIAN R1T GEAR TUNNEL SLIDE


We are excited to share our newest R1T product-A gear tunnel slide you actually can buy! Check it out and let us know what you think!

From these two photos, it looks like the entire mechanism sits on the two edges of the gear tunnel openings, and the rest of the body of the slide looks to "float" above the bottom floor of the gear tunnel itself by a few inches. I can even see you've kept the gear tunnel floor liner installed. Is that usable space for storage underneath the slide, and if so, how many inches of height is available?

Looks cool but seems to consume a lot of space in the gear tunnel.

We are going to have a few different mounting brackets that will attach to the T-slot, should have them on the site in the next couple weeks.

Yes! Its not the most accessible space, but its does have 3" of space between floor and slide that could be used for storage.



On the lost space in the tunnel, we removed one of the end caps so you can get better idea of the profile. The center slide sits less than 1" above the tunnel door, we maximized space the best we could while still having a functioning slide. It may not work for everyone and that's OK!

A couple units are shipping out to customers this week, so we will have some real world feedback for you guys.

Thanks again for your thoughts and let us know if you have any more questions!

Thanks

Looks solid, subscribed.

@RANGE INDUSTRIES, any coupon code for early buyers? Please and thanks.

Shame it's not flat. Limits its use as a table or extra work surface for me. Still cool though, looking forward to seeing what people do with it!

 

[Cogentfire]

Nice! Price is a bit high for me.

My slide is out for delivery. Pictures coming soon.

EDIT: Pics!

(I am helping Range Industries test this slide so I have one of the early units. Making sure packaging is all good, instructions make sense, etc.)

My notes:

• Zero rattles which I'm pumped about. I made sure to apply loctite to all bolts as they suggest.
• I used their cardboard suggestion to slide the unit into the gear tunnel.
• They mention installing the front and rear lips while outside the truck and then getting help from someone to place the entire unit into the tunnel. I didn't want to wait for help so I just place the base in the truck and then added the rest of the parts.
• Instructions are clear and installation is super straight-forward.
• There is room for adjustment if necessary.
• The slides are very heavy duty. Nothing is wobbly when fully extended.
• I will be using this for camping gear, golf clubs, and plenty more.
• 4 bolts and the entire unit can come out if need be.
• I am going to put some tool box liner on it to avoid scratches.
• Overall very happy.

Let me know if you have any other questions. I'll be sure to post more pics on my IG: R1Truck
