2025 Silverado 3500HD Fitment
| Configuration | Wheelbase | CA after bed removal | Flatbed size |
|---|---|---|---|
| Regular Cab long bed SRW | 142.1″ | ~56–60″ | 8 ft SRW |
| Double Cab long bed SRW | 158.9″ | ~56–60″ | 8 ft SRW |
| Crew Cab standard bed SRW | 158.9″ | ~56″ | 8 ft SRW |
| Crew Cab long bed SRW | 171.9″ | ~60″ | 8 ft SRW |
| Crew Cab long bed DRW | 171.9″ | ~60″ | 8 ft DRW |
| Chassis cab (3500HD CC) | ~161.5–199.5″ | 60″ / 84″ | 8 ft or 9 ft |
Chassis cab versions come with a factory CA spec, which makes ordering simple. On a pickup you should measure from the back of the cab to the center of the rear axle after pulling the factory box.
SRW vs DRW
- SRW: ~86–87″ bed width, up to roughly 4,400–4,900 lbs payload, better in soft ground, cheaper tire replacement.
- DRW: ~96–97″ bed width, up to roughly 7,400 lbs payload and about 36,000 lbs gooseneck towing. The choice for loaded stock trailers, equipment, and hotshot work.
- Beds are configuration-specific — an SRW bed will not fit a dually and vice versa.
Payload Impact of a Flatbed Swap
The factory Silverado 3500HD box weighs roughly 450–550 lbs. A steel flatbed runs 500–900 lbs depending on length and skirting, so the net payload change is small — usually 100–350 lbs. Skirted beds with toolboxes weigh the most; plain steel flatbeds the least.
Flatbeds That Fit
- Bedrock — steel flatbeds in SRW and DRW, our best-priced in-stock option from $3,650 installed.
- CM RD, TM, ER — RD for gooseneck hauling, TM for a taller rack, ER for heavy commercial duty.
- Norstar SD (skirted) / SR — enclosed toolboxes, popular with ranchers and welders.
- NXG — strong value steel flatbeds. Full lineup on our flatbed bodies page and current units on truck beds.
Towing Setup
Every flatbed we install can be set up with a gooseneck ball, rear receiver, and 7-way wiring. On a 3500HD DRW that gives you a clean 36,000 lb-capable gooseneck platform with a flat deck you can actually work off of.
