Finally finished Access cab dog platform

After searching and scouring through bunch of posts here in 3rd and 2nd gen threads about dog platforms, I finally finished mine. Legs are hinged to fold back out of the way when it's out of the truck. Carpeted the top using a Walmart trunk liner with rubberized backing. The bottom is covered in scrap carpeting from Lowe's that I think is less likely to scratch/damage the plastic interior.

 

Looks great. My problem isn't so much the seats or fabric in the rear but the interior panels of the doors getting all mucked up with scratches, dirt, mud and hair.

 

Cool!

 

Nice work!

 

Nice work!
Looks like you forgot to install the dog though!

 

I trailer my dogs.

 

Yeah I do dog boxes in back of bed

 

In the Az heat?

 

That is way nicer than the one I made for my '09. That looks really nice. I used to use seat covers to keep the mud out of the seat fabric. But with the double cab in the '16, I lay the seat down and use a rubber mat and a dog bed. The back side of the seat is plastic so it doesn't get as dirty.

 

Can't hear them howl when there in the box.

 

This is how I get my dogs around in the Az heat.

 

I like it... Make a templet on a roll of builders paper. Mail it to me I will return you something of close value ?

 

Really nice - Do you have a template - would like to duplicate.

 

If I did that my gf would freak.


Maybe I could put her back there...

 

Need one of those!!! Tired of vacuuming dog hair off cloth seats lol

 

Who hunts in triple digits? Hunting season is in the winter or fall. For the summer months we have the 4 runner.

 

Hunting? I don't have hunting dogs.

 

Had a few people comment and/or send me messages. I'm considering creating a template from this to be able to mail out. Hell, might be even able to include instructions on parts I used and how I put it together. Also, I've got to get a pic of the dog on it and one of it folded up.

 

Excellent idea ,well made I just used sheets of thick foam rubber in my access cab dog really likes to go everywhere .Cheers

 

Bringing back an old thread...

Do you have any more pictures of the hinge and extra leg in pic #4? I plan on copying your design.
