Cargo Bed Divider - What do you use?

That’s a good idea too. I’m pretty sold on the plywood channel and board tho, mostly because I have them both and the boys are personalizing the board for him Are the compartments pretty standard? I think it was around 8 1/2”, but I can’t remember the distance between the bolts.

 

The box on the left is a Plano Sportsman’s chest that I use to store tools, jumper cables, straps. It fits perfectly next to the storage bins as you can see.

 

If you're going to use the factory divider with a tonneau, flip the slide mounting brackets over so that the knobs are underneath. This way those knobs do not stick up above the bed rail sides. The travel will be limited though as most of the tonneaus I looked into utilize the slide rails for mounting. The advantage of flipping these brackets so that the knob is underneath is that the divider just lifts right out so much quicker and easier than with them on to and having to remove the brackets just to remove the divider.
I'm going to be adding a tonneau eventually. Just saving my pennies until after Christmas.

 

I will check latter

 

I used some leftover 2x8's and decking. A few measurements, a cut or two and some deck screws later, I have a way to keep the groceries from rolling around under my tonneau. Zero money spent and it easily lifts out.

 

I just made this. Pretty pleased. Will have it mounted this week.

 

You using 80/20 components?

Looks pretty slick man, good job!

 

Rundown on how you made it?

 

I sure am. Ran me just over the cost of the OEM alternative and it's more modular.

 

It is all 80/20 Inc 15 series hardware. Don't have a parts list, but it's just 4 sections cut to specified length from them and the hardware needed to hold them together. All parts I have here aside from the bolts in the mesh came from them.

 

Looks great. If you get a chance to do a parts list and a how to, im sure lots of folks would enjoy it!

 

Bolts centet measure 6 7/8 in . Plywood channel 8 in . Can go what ever lenght you want .

I make my own.

I've been considering it. Definitely gotta put some more thought into the design as I kinda just went at it blindly. Not everything was perfect and I have to do some trimming.

 

I guess I got lucky on Amazon.ca, got my OEM divider brand new for $48cdn shipped lol!

 

Here is mine all mounted up.

 

any chance you could do a build thread on this? thanks, from Canada

 

Where'd those cross bars come from?

 

I was hoping he would do a build thread on it but nope.

 

We can only hope....someday.......
