    Ideas...


    Here is a good idea for drawers. I might try this. Still researching.

    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GaYrMPE9Td0


    plastic corner joiners, with aluminum square tube. Yes, aluminum might be more expensive, but lighter than wood, and waterproof.

    also, this:

    OR... just stumbled upon this. Corners for the material like the Prinsu crossbars.. Can add tie down points

    My dad had a chevy 1500 back in the day that we used to go camp in when I was a kid. He had a topper on it, and built a custom platform in the bed. The air mattress sat above the wheel wells, and a hand made drawer system slid out under that. It was a sweet setup. He's got the skills to do stuff like that. Me, not so much.

    Im not looking to make a sleep platform, because my new bed rack should be ready in about a week. I might try my hand at the 8020 stuff that Prinsu uses. Budget goal is less than what LB ARB drawers cost ($1400)

    Is that something you're able to do yourself?
