Hey Gang;
My rig is a 2013 5.0 extended cab. Seems to me that there is some "wasted space" at the front end between the bumper/grille and the radiator. I'm thinking that some sheet metal/expanded metal work or maybe some fiberglass formed to fit that the area could make a neat storage are for stuff like jumper cables, an emergency road side kit and other stuff. I'm open to ideas/input. Thanks.

 

you'd block your radiator and oil cooler, would you not?

 

It could be done, i know guys with winches mounted there that cannot be seen unless you look. They run the winch cable out the hole in the front of the bumper. I store my jumper cables there. I didn't fabricate anything special, just use bungee cords to hold them in place.

You can't get too carried away and mount anything too high or it could block the radiator.

 

I'm actually looking at the space lower than the bottom of the radiator...

 

yepper...even with the bottom of the radiator is he highest I'd go with anything
