Default Du-Ha storage bin

Finally broke down and bougjt one. Every easy to put in, remove the 2 bolts holding the jack bracket down and replace with the 2 provided. Took less then 10 minutes.

Fits perfectly beneath the rear seat and looks like it came from the factory with it there.

Was a little pricey but I decided it was worth buying.

My thoughts exactly. I'd like one, but $200 is a bit steep.

Couldn't help but take another look at this storage bin. Walk outside and looked and my truck and figured for about $30 dollars i could just fab up my own bin. The basics for the bin are already in the truck, all i would need to make is the front and the two small side pieces out of MFD and carpet it. My bench seat in the back has two wholes on the driver side that I could use to bolt up the fab up bin and I could add two more wholes on the passenger side. This is what I'm thinking basically, the front will take some time to contour to the floor but manageable.

Built my own out of 1/2" OSB and covered it in grey vinyl. I made two boxes instead of contouring it to the floor. I can pull them out
without taking everything out of them. Total cost was about $30.
