A retractable sliding cargo bed includes a stationary frame adapted for mounting onto a deck of a truck or other vehicle and a traveling frame that is movable relative to the stationary frame between a retracted position and an extended position. A locking mechanism i s provided which includes stop-members secured to the bottom of the stationary frame at equal ly spaced intervals. A tandem-locking lever assembly is carried by the traveling frame, which is pivotally mounted for movement about an axis, which is parallel to the longitudinal axis of th e traveling frame between a downwardly angled locking position and a substantially horizontal release position. The tandem-locking lever assembly is biased into the locking position. A release lever connected to an activation rod is provided for manually releasing and moving the tande m- locking lever assembly to the released and looked positions.
