Nice congrats on the V2 purchase. Yeah give it a try. Even if you mess up the wood part you can still use the drawer slides again if you hire someone to rebuild the wood part. Sure, you will have wasted some time and money on the wood but the expensive slide part will be reusable.

Thanks! I can't take full credit for that... I was talking to my dad on the phone (a 50 year contractor) talking about ripping these slots with the router and he recommending doing them as a full sheet first so I would get perfect alignment of the slots later down the line during assembly. I guess you learn a trick or two with that many years under the belt.

Great proyect, Actually the most usefull so far (searching for DIY versions of the Decked system). Now, A couple things I saw that I personally think could be better... The handle for the drawer is great, but if it gets stuck in the close position good luck (a simple combination of too much weight and the truck facing down an incline can do it easily). I think you could moove the slide rails up and place 2 simple handles (like a cabinet handle or something like that) so that when you gran the handles you can unlock the slides with your pinky and pull inmediatelly with both hands or with one if you prefer. The other one I see is that in my personal opinion, You could make it slimer (like lower) in order for it to allow as much of the original functionality of the bed as possible. why? just because having taller sides on the bed makes it easyer to place some things there without being worried about them falling out easily. Adding to it I would personally duplicate the support bracing you made for those "ammo can" cubbies in the other side, just for convenience because that way you can add annother large piece of ply and have a flat top on the same level if you want to or need it. Personally, I'm gonna do it very similar to your proyect for my dads build just so he can have all his stuff available, secure, dry and out of the way when he doesn´t need it. But keeping as much functionality in the bed as possible.

@prospectoverland

4 ай бұрын

Thanks so much. Hope it will be helpful. I didn’t make a video for mine. My tundra was the first one I’ve done and focus just on figuring it out. This Tacoma was the second one. You can in theory just double what I did. Just take the distance between your wheel well and split it in half. It will force you to make your drawers a certain width only. Don’t forget to account for thickness of plywood and drawer sliders. About a 1.5” per side. Hope it works out well for the family and dogs.

Awesome project

I see a lot of builds using this long drawer slide out method that only opens if the tailgate is down. A better option would be for there to be 3-4 smaller drawers that open into the back of the bed or a swing up option for the bed to access the space under the bed. This way the space is usable when the back is closed up.

My question is with using the D rings to secure the base to the bed did you have to get longer hardware or did the factory D ring bolts work with the 3/4 inch ply wood?

@Prospect Overland - Doing my buildout on a short bed Tacoma now, dual side by side drawers. Thanks for such a good video! I have similar slides as you (Ovis 48"). For install, did you just rest the slides on the bottom of the drawer box and then screw them into the sides of the drawer box? Then, once they were installed, did you just set your drawer in the drawer box or did you space it off the bottom a little bit? I have a sheet of 1/8" wood, I was thinking of dropping my drawer on that for the spacer.

@prospectoverland

Жыл бұрын

You nailed it! I spaced mine up just a little. I think I used a door shim maybe but a 1/8 ply is perfect! Yes set the slide in the box first and screw to the box. Then set the draw in between the freshly mounted slides and screw to the drawer. You will have to screw a few of them through the small holes in the actual metal slide. They and opening to drill through.

I did the top of my tundra with 1/2 ply and i can tell it’s a little weaker than this 3/4 I did on the Tacoma. But I’ve had three adults on top of my 1/2 set up so a few hundred pounds…maybe 600. So I would think this 3/4 set up could certainly hold a little more then that. The actual drawer…..I’m not certain no way for me to know. The metal slides are rated at 500lb. But would the wood drawer bottom hood up to that much, I don’t know.

Have you ever thought about doing one that has a 2nd set of slides mounted to the top cover so that you can slide the top tray out for anything you store on top of the drawers not in the drawers.
