Malone Axis Truck Bed and Roof Load Extender Installation - 2013 Chevrolet Silverado

Speaker 1: Today, on our 2013 Chevrolet Silverado, we're going to be taking a look at the Malone Axis Truck Bed and Roof Load Extender, part number MPG907 00:00:10. This truck bed extender is going to give you 53 inches of extension from the center of your hitch pin hole to the edge so you can haul the longest loads such as ladders, lumber, steel tubing, piping, steel beams, rods. You name it, you can put it on here. And, it can hold 500 pounds on the truck bed extender. So, if you figure that across the entire truck bed, you can haul some heavy stuff. Unlike some other truck bed extenders, this one has tall load stops, which are also adjustable, increasing the maximum width of whatever you can haul behind you with a range of 28 inches up to 48 inches.There's plenty of tie down points on the load stops, and you can go underneath the arms.

MaxxTow Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2013 Chevrolet Silverado

Today on 2013 Chevrolet Silverado we're going to be taking a look at the Maxxtow Cargo Carrier With Ramp, part number MT70100. Now this cargo carrier's going to be perfect for carrying a lawn mower, a scooter, or pretty much anything that has wheels that we may need to carry on the back of our truck. Now the way we're going to fold our ramp down is if we come to the side here, we're going to have a pin and clip on each end. Now if we remove the clip we can go ahead and push the pin out and remove it, and we can remove the other side as well. Once we have both removed we can lower the ramp down, allowing us to load up any of our gear. Now our cargo carrier is going to add quite a bit to the back of our truck, so there are a few measurements I'd like to give you. Our ramp for example is going to come in at roughly, right about 40".



Darby Extend-A-Truck Hitch Cargo Carrier Review - 2013 Chevrolet Silverado

Today on our 2013 Chevrolet Silverado, we're going to be taking a look at the Darby Hitch Mounted Load Extender, part number DTA944. Now if you've ever hauled with your truck, I'm sure most of us have been in the situation where we either needed to carry a ladder, some lumber, or maybe even some drywall, and for us those that don't have eight-foot beds, and with most of the load sticking out, it is a little bit unsafe and using the extender is going to be able to give you a spot to tie your load down and make everything more secure. On each end of our extender we're going to have one tie-down point. That way no matter what we are carrying, it's going to be able to secure it down. Now here, with the included pin and clip, we can make our adjustments, so if you need your load to be angled down into your bed, you can raise it up, or if you need it at level, you can lower it down to make it level so your load sits how you want it to. Now our extender is going to work with 2-inch hitches, and it does also include the pin and clip for your hitch. Now our extended truck is going to give us 49" of extra load carrying capability. On the end here, we're going to be able to put all of our loads and anything else we need to carry for up to 4-feet wide. Now our extended truck is going to be able to hold and withstand up to 350-pounds of weight.
