    The same shit everyone else has.
    Looking to utilize space better inside the shell on my truck - especially permanently mounted items like traction boards, shovel, and axe.

    Current mounting location of said items

    Cruising the never ending rabbit hole that is the internet, I came across this

    and it got my wheels spinning.

    The idea is basically either a full (or partial) bed rack you typically see on “overlanding” vehicles with a buncha shit strapped to it like traction boards, Rotopax, shovel, ect, but internal.

    Google lead me to a few ideas and such but nothing really stands out.

    Has any one build something similar for their truck out of 80/20 extrusion or Unistrut?
