Quality product, smart modification for truck owners.

Delivered on time, all parts included, relatively easy to install, great addition to my truck. With a triple trunk cover and bed extension that folds inward, it serves as a solid "trunk" without objects flying over the bed. The lid latch handles abut the bed extension, but that can be fixed. If necessary, simply remove completely.

Pros
  • Nice to use
Cons
  • Thin

The best bed extender just got better

Amp Research has once again raised the bar. Your new XTender MAX is fantastic and even better than the original. I've driven their original for 10 years and LOVE it, but this new model I bought for my dad's truck is even better. Comes partially assembled (thanks!) You'll need to drill 4 holes in your precious truck, but don't worry, the included template and instructions are pretty solid. If you need extra sleeping space, THIS IS THE EXTENSION YOU CAN BUY.

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Protection

Like all of their other products

I'm a big fan of AMP Research's products. I installed their BedStep 2 and PowerSteps on my 2015 GMC Sierra Denali. The fit, finish and quality are simply second to none. This product is no different. Like all other products, it looks like it should be an OEM product. It is durable but very light. Easily detachable and also fits in the back seat if you ever leave the house and need to take it off. The straps hook right into the tailgate latches, and when they're latched, this thing doesn't move.

Pros
  • Handsfree
Cons
  • Expensive

I like it but the installation instructions may need improvement

I really like it but I think your installation instructions could be optimized. The instructions do not mention the metric wrench/head required to install the brackets. The drill required is not the usual size that you will find in the kit. I had to buy it separately at the hardware store. Also, on my truck at least, the nut is blind mounted on the back of the bracket giving very limited access space. The drilling template worked great and without it it would have been much more difficult. Aโ€ฆ

Pros
  • good thing
Cons
  • there are problems

Pretty disappointed overall. I bought what I believe to be the best tailgate extension and some parts were lacking. I called and spoke to a representative but did not call back or attempt to resolve my issue. First, the kit did not include a template for the holes needed to install the brackets. With some ingenuity and my wife's help, we were able to figure out where to drill the holes and use painter's tape to help us. 3 hours and it's installed. Then I go to figure out how the latch strapsโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Empty

Made in the USA for Truck Body and Trunk Accessories

So far so good, just received and easy to install. You will need a drill, a hole punch, drill bits (a smaller one to start the hole and a larger one to finish it. A step drill is the way to go if you have one), a 1/2" wrench and a 1/2 socket, t-25 and tt-15. First remove the taillights so you can use the drilling template. After you have drilled both sides, you can put the xtender HD together. The way I did this was that I attached both ends of the Xtender HD to the truck and then measured howโ€ฆ

Pros
  • One Year Trial
Cons

ALL AT CAP ON THE TRUCK PLEASE READ!

I've read mixed reviews about installing this bed extender on hooded trucks. It will work, but not in the way AMP intended. Installation of everything should be done according to the instructions. The problem occurs when you try to fold the extension back onto the bed. I have a 2017 Silverado with an ARE cover. As you can see from my photos, the extension hits the lid when trying to fold it. Here's my solution: remove the extension from the quick release hinges, flip it over and lay it on theโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Lots of positive vibes
Cons
  • Minor bugs

Works with Tri-Fold Tonneau

My main concern when I bought this for my 2015 Silverado 1500 Ext Cab was that it would prevent access to the rear latch handle on my HardHat branded triple rack, when the extension was inside the bed. I'm happy to say she doesn't mind - see photos. Enough space to engage or disengage when the extension is folded. Installation was pretty easy. The hardest part was stuffing my fat fists into the space behind the taillights where the nuts were needed to hold the brackets (use thin cotton workโ€ฆ

The perfect complement to my GMC Sierra. Well made and lightweight.

I was looking for a bed divider to keep things from rolling around on the bed of my 2017 GMC Sierra 1500. I bought (and promptly returned) a separator from GMC that didn't fit my tonneau triple cover. I didn't think about the bed extension. I guess I just didn't take into account that it also doubles as a divider when folded inwards. I'm very glad I stumbled across this article at Revain. It was about half the price of the extension I returned and I'm very happy with it. It is lightweight andโ€ฆ
