Just saw this seat delete. Any informations on the company?

Lexus GX 460 M.A.S.S. Storage Platform - American Adventure Lab

NOTE: This platform requires the removal of the factory 3rd row seats. NOTE: There aren’t instructions yet for this product, if you’re wanting one and close to Southern Utah we’d love for you to come by so we can install and make the instructions for this item! Let us know if you’re interested...

I haven’t heard of them yet… just looking at small unrelated detail… installed in a rare 10-13 460 without nav

Looks like out of Utah and must be now turning attention to GX… see lots of Jeep stuff from the last few years.

I am actually planning my own seat delete as it is, dusting off some basic metal fab skills I haven't used since 2009/10.

This is much closer to what I am looking at doing that other kit thats glorified plywood.

Lol nice catch @Acrad!
That price tag is wild. For all that money and it doesent even cover the side wing areas. I’m working on my own version of the 3rd row platform. Planning on relocating the wiring a little so I can get the plate closer to the floor. Also some sound mat going down first.

I think our plans are similar. I want to try to move the wiring around the side and get the remote receiver for the key fob forward, then use dynamat to regain sound insulation and create a flat floor section, then order a precut aluminum Brite Tread panel and some smaller pieces, some flat and some bent at different angles to finish it out. Re-enforce tie downs with extra layer of material. Get as much space as possible without making it as loud as a my old Chevy express work vans.

I was thinking possible plastics from the 5 seater 460s but that would entail the whole wheel well covers.

The stock #non-3rd row 460 - 5 seater - ClubLexus - Lexus Forum Discussion

GX - 2nd Gen (2010-2023) - The stock #non-3rd row 460 - 5 seater - I have seen some mention elsewhere there is a version of the 460 outside of North American market which 3rd row can be deleted from the factory. I've always assumed in brochures this was just a reference that you didn't need to...

Intresting, didn’t know they made a 5 seat version. Too bad finding a junked one at a pick n pull would be near impossible in the states.

The seats look like 4runner seats, I wonder if anything else crosses over. Also, Have been wondering if I could put my seats in a 4Runner then do a full 2nd and 3rd row delete.

Custom Angle - Diamond Tread Plate | Stainless Supply

I came across that company and it got my mind going on using angled side pieces to go from the flat bottom piece to the side plastics. Might even be enough space for a storage door.

Interesting, the middle seats fold down the same way as in the 100 series. Makes for a much flatter platform.

Victory working on something similar but covers all the nasty:

Those look exactly like 4Runner seats

I moved my receiver from the middle to along the main harness. I haven't had any signal issues.

My boss has their full setup in his JL. They make really nice stuff. While he was there, he watched them draw up a bracket in CAD, cut it out, bend it, get it powder coated, all on his install day.

Has anyone 3d printed plastic wings to cover the gap when removing 3rd row?

 

[TheNomad]

I used the normal plastic covers and added a flat vertical piece of plywood to it to cover it. Stock on top, wood on the side.

Probably need a large format printer for that. Easier to just cut.

True

I may try to use Brite Tread and keep the space accessible for pulling cable or other things

I cut a hole in the top of the stock plastic/carpet for my fire extinguisher.
