Show us your truck bed sleeping platform/drawer/storage systems

Sweet setup. What fork mount is that for your bike?

 

It's the Freedom Coast Mount and L-Track. It's pricey but well worth it.

In process.
Indoor/Outdoor carpet and Liquid Nails.

 

Progress
20 lbs each container so just like clamping.

 

Platforms covered.
Frames completed and varnished.

 

From another thread so I don't have to upload the pics twice...

 

Almost done.
2 middle pieces are getting carpeted.

 

Done.
Just gotta turnbuckle them.

 

Pull ring to pull up the middle while inside. Silicone is to prevent snags.

 

I checked storage availability with the totes we use. These work well at home and on trips.
I can store these under the platform.
6 of these on the driver side.
3 of these on the passenger side
2 of these in the middle. (Does not inhibit seating foot placement)
11 total.

Good idea! I ran across another thread a while back that mentioned the DeWalt box size that fit in the AC rear footwell, so I'll measure the bed slides to see what size totes fit the width...

 

Note the lock nuts.

 

These totes fit my AC rear foot well.

 

Did someone say, here, that they had a contact at ARE?

 

Bump

 

Looks awesome - truck, platform, trip - just awesome

 

Do you have a write up on how you made this?

 

To make the Tacoma BamBeds Kit you'll need the following.

Material:
Two 4x8' sheets of 3/4" thick plywood.
Total material cost: $150-$600 depending on material choice.
We use a high grade birch or bamboo made with waterproof adhesive to prevent delamination in the long term.

Tools:
One jigsaw
One router with a 1/4" or 1/8" bit
(Circular saw or table saw is ideal but not needed)

Time:
2-8hours depending on skill.

Key Dimensions:
Each board is approximately 57"x24". Make a paper template for the angled cut at the back of the bed.
The tailgate bulkhead width is 53"
The height of the ledge is 9" (this is how tall the feet should be)

Best Finish:
My favorite way to finish the boards is with with EVA boat decking foam which provides a comfortable surface to crawl on and really protects the wood as well.
Very easy to apply, just peel and stick. We've got a link and DIY install video to this on our website.

Example on my Tundra (about 2 years of use so far)
