Wayne,
Sorry to hi-jack the forum thread, but I was wondering if you could send some pics of your false floor to me too?? I'm looking at doing something like this for my Hilux dual cab. Sounds like a good idea....
Regards,
Michael.

G'day Bradley,

So you're suggesting basically a big upside down box that won't go to the edges of the tub but basically will sit between the wheel arches? In this case, I might make 2 equal sized ones for ease of loading in and out.

Instead of _Affordable_Storage_Drawers.aspx, I think I'll just use plastic crates and I agree, they'll slide nicely on the tub liner which is EXACTLY my current problem. Without some sort of framework, they slide all over the bleeping place.

The big thing is that when I have a wooden floor, I will be happy to screw, hammer, nail, bolt and drill things in place.

Thanks for your help.

sort of, some support at the front,edges and rear, flat top cut to the exact size of the tub, across the top of the wheel arches, and 2 long _Affordable_Storage_Drawers.aspx down the guts. Drop the tailgate slide out _Affordable_Storage_Drawers.aspx and rest on tailgate and also acess area on eack side. each side hole would be grouse for straps, chains in bags, comp in bag etc.

Plastic crates would be a bugger to reach when up front ( thats how i had my work RA and it was a pain) and this will give you a wicked flat area to pack on. Sort of like a good set of _Affordable_Storage_Drawers.aspx / false floor in the back of a wagon.

Mozza, that would be great. I'm sitting down with a pen and paper at the moment.

Cheers,

Jason.
