Anyone want a case for the left side tailgate cavity?

[dustin smith]

Thinking about designing/ building a plastic case for the left side of my tailgate to store some things and match the tool kit.

Would any of you guys have interest in one as well and what would you be willing to pay for one?

Injection molding won’t be feasible but 3-d printing at a larger scale might work out.

I'm interested!

I'm interested. But while you're in there, do both sides. just 1 doesn't make much sense to me. I'd like a whole replacement. Everything carpet GONE. Something like the UHMW plastic ones you see on the 80 series. This right here is exactly what we need. You couldn't take my money fast enough for one.

Finally! Tailgate Storage!

Met up with Notch today and got one of his tailgate lids. He's in a small shop in Portland, Maine and they are doing some amazing builds in there! The detail work is incredible and it's easy to see why their lids are as good as they are, some of their cars have been featured in national...

Hi. Are you talking about the left-side space?

Was it always intended to be empty or am I missing some tools/pieces?

I would be interested for one!

I would be interested as well.

I'd be interested. Anything sub $100 USD would be ok with me. Anybody look into getting a tool kit and hollowing it out?

Update: I looked up the tool kit box. 09120-60210 for $34 USD online. Tomorrow I'll look at existing kit and see it can be hollowed out.

Apologies for going in a different direction in your thread.

I am interested but as well was thinking about the same approach. put some foam inside to hold loose things from shifting

I dig the trail tailor design, but the cost stops me. It costs a lot for people to make these high quality products, so I get it. I can't justify the expense when the stock storage works well enough for everyday use.

 

[fasteddie2015]

I checked today. Left side is an inch or two wider than the right (tool) side. The stock tool box leaves a gap when put in the left compartment. Not big enough to be useful and looks sloppy. SO, I'm definitely in for a custom box for the left.

 

[Bendcruiser]

Interested here too.

I’m interested too, I currently keep a headlamp, gloves and ratchet straps in mine FWIW. Sub 100 would be great! Thanks!
