Rear Storage Box Done!!!
 

Built a storage drawer system for the rear cargo area. Here are some pics and details. Turned out great, the trays are a tight fit allowing for them to be pulled out just like a drawer.

This is pic of empty cargo area:

I had less than $100 into project and about three hours labor. Great storage for tools and what not. The wife saw it and said that would work great for vegetables and bread.... WTF.

One final shot from passenger compartment.

Nice job! I like it....vegetables and bread? :giggling: They just don't understand, do they.

Re: Rear Storage Box Done!!!
 

Nice job!
Great solution

Did you bolt it into the stock tie down locations?
Do you have the dimensions/plans of the box.
Is it pretty level with the back seat?

You can even mix some cement in the drawers if you have too:)

Re: Rear Storage Box Done!!!
 

THAT looks great!

:excited: :excited: :excited: :excited:

Re: Rear Storage Box Done!!!
 

Yes it is bolted into stock location for tie downs. I used 10mmX70mm 1.5 bolts to bolt it down.

The box is 30x40 outside dimensions, the top is 30x42 1/4 to extend all the way to rear quarter panels. I have 6" clear hgt in box for trays. I haven;t checked to see how it lines up with rear seats down.

Good job man, looks great:cool:

Re: Rear Storage Box Done!!!
 

I would like to see a pic with the seats folded down too.


LOOKIN GOOD!

Re: Rear Storage Box Done!!!
 

Great Job:beerchug: Where did you get the rubber mat?

Re: Rear Storage Box Done!!!
 

Very nice custom work man !! Congrats !!!

Re: Rear Storage Box Done!!!
 

I got the rubber mat at Tractor Supply, it was a 4x6 stall mat that I cut to size.

Re: Rear Storage Box Done!!!
 

Good Craftmanship!

Re: Rear Storage Box Done!!!
 

That's pretty cool... About the only suggestion I'd make is wrapping the end cuts with black vinyl just to make it looked more finished.. Rattlecan on plywood just looks like.. Well.. Rattle can on plywood

Not that you could tell either way when the door is closed..

Do the tubs fill the entire depth of the shelf or is there even more room behind them to hide more stuff..??

A clean tow strap.....tsk tsk.:giggling:

Re: Rear Storage Box Done!!!
 

very nice. clean build :perfect10s:

Re: Rear Storage Box Done!!!
 

I have black vinyl stair nosing on order for that exact reason.

Tubs are 28" long, box has 29 1/4" clear inside.

Re: Rear Storage Box Done!!!
 

I know, I know, I'll see if I can get a little mud on it this weekend. :D

Re: Rear Storage Box Done!!!
 

Looks great!

Re: Rear Storage Box Done!!!
 

Looks GR8 :clapping:
I would also like to see it with the rear seats down :D

Re: Rear Storage Box Done!!!
 

:perfect10s: Very good, and thanks for the measurments.

Re: Rear Storage Box Done!!!
 

Re: Rear Storage Box Done!!!
 

It's about 2-3" higher than rear seats folding down, which wouldn't make for a very large storage area if I tried to flush it with rear seats down.
