Rear Seat Delete Decks

Great job! It looks like we have the same "fuzzy" OEM carpet! LOLOLOLOLOL

 

Welcome to the forum Lynn This is an excellent idea and I am definitely doing this now. Thanks for the great idea!

Now if I could just figure out how to get her out of the truck after rides without me feeling like a meanie Treats would work but

 

Thank you for the welcome and for your excellent ideas.
I love how you made it all fold up and your idea about allowing the entire gear storage to come out and hang in the garage. That's genius because I can have entirely different truck outfittings for different environments; like "the lake kit", "the drive-in kit", etc.
So glad to hear about the vet records; here's to never needing them. And too many people don't know about doggles; it's a shame. She's a lucky pup. Sorry I don't have a solution to the egress-meanie problem.
And thanks again for the welcome.

 

Since there are a lot of these molle seat backs in this thread, I thought I'd link these. At $13.99, camel says that's the lowest price ever. I bought them, but haven't used them yet.

You're welcome Lynn. Yea, the fold up option was only because I wanted to have a platform from front to back completely. It not only gives me access to the under-seat storage easily but I can store thing in the footwells too I don't want Phoenix to get into.

The hanging storage solution only came with two D ring anchors as the straps are meant to be attached to the roll bar in Jeeps. I found these this morning though (which oddly are also for Jeeps).

So I am going to order them.

I did ultimately watch some videos of how to remove the rear lap belts as @cosmic65charlie @tacotroy17 and @infinity mentioned and you remove the stamped "SRS" airbag cover in that trim panel to get at the bolt that holds the panel in place. Once I have the D rings I will look at how to utilize that bolt, then drill holes lower down in the panel and use some large fender washers behind the panel to mount the side straps to. I'll replace the clothes hanger hooks with these D rings too. Once I decide on the exact mounting locations I will post up pics and specs. I held the organizer in place when it arrived and it's not going to fill the rear cab wall completely like I thought but that's ok. It will be close though. I don't intend to need it to hold a lot of weight and the only real stress on the mounting points will be while it is loaded and I am off-road.

Those are great looking seat back organizers.

I agree, I hope I never need those vet records but you're right, best to have them there in case. Thanks, the doggles were an afterthought but one I'm glad I discovered. There are so many bugs here in the warmer months. I'm looking for a second set with clear lenses because I read some reviews that stated the darker lenses freak them out as it get's darker at night. Some people even said indoors is not recommended. This all makes sense to me.

You're welcome for the greeting. There's way too much testosterone on here so it's refreshing to see more and more ladies joining the ranks. Being married for 34 years has taught me a lot of things, one of which is us guys would be nothing without our wives.










(in case she reads my posts )

 

Oh, and Great looking pooch yourself! And also, Thank you for your service!!! We're both huge military supporters!

 

I’ve definitely learned this lesson the hard way

 

Was super stoked when I saw that Aaron was offering his rear seat delete. Was originally going to go with the goose gear but didn’t like some of the things about it so I went with Aaron. Couldn’t be happier

 

I see it gets the lick of approval too!


Love it!

 

Ah yeah! Looks great! Pup approved!

 

The hero we need.

 

Excellent ideas around the anchors. I've got a couple projects ahead of seat-delete, so when I get to it I'll re-peruse the forums for updates. For doggles; good to know, for sure. This is one of those gear items that it would be good to include during the formative puppy time if possible, same as the boots or life jacket, etc. Older doggos we just do our best.

You guys, staaaaahp . Seriously, thanks for the support though; and what a great emoji with the flag!
Pic is just a friend's dog. I'm petless at the moment, but it's coming up on the 2020-21 To-Do list:

1. Divorce
2. Relax
3. Good sleep, nutrition, fitness. (the 2021 version of GTL: gym, tan, laundry. lol)
4. sell coupe
5. buy overlanding beast w/room for bikes, dirt bikes, kayak, etc.
6. Enjoy the journey of fiddling with the beast (including doggo deck).
7. peruse doggos & take 2 to their furever home.
8. Work hard, play hard.

Currently just enjoying step #6. Picked up #5 right here on the forum, so I got the truck, and other truck-nerd friends to obsessively tweak our projects. Win-win.

 

So sorry to hear that . That's hard...

 

That looks excellent, what year is the truck? The cubbie-panels; the front one opens into space down to the floorboard, where's the rear one go? Floorboard or a storage compartment?

 

yes. Front hatches open to floor. Rear hatches open to storage compartment. You must remove the factory storage lid before installing my seat delete design. When you do, everything aligns perfectly and you’ll have total storage access

 

2021. Yup correct. Front for the floor boards and rear for the cubby’s

 

Many people have made rear seat delete “systems”. If someone came up with a template for the top panel, most of us could cut it out, or know someone who could. I have a 2021 Access cab and I want to delete just the seats, not the back panel. If someone made a paper or cardboard template that could be mailed, I bet a lot of us would pay for it.
Any takers ?

 

Made a flush floor and covered it with a rubber mat and clips to hold it in place. My AC had the jump seats just need a WT rear seat panel

 

Here's the part number.



Search 64270-04140-CO online and get a price. Most dealerships will match it. If you give them your VIN, they'll tell you it doesn't fit but it does.

 

Beautiful GSP. My GSP loves my rear seat delete. He has a full size dog bed back there to ride in.
