Rear Tailgate Storage Solution - The $55 version

[Kief]

I'm thinking skip the plastic, who cares if its a bit heavy and a little in the way..

 

[2fpower]

Yeah, but that one does not have a slam latch.

Hope the pictures come back, want to check out your install.

^ go big or go home

Actually this would be a good upgrade to go along with the Snorkel install. Mount this on the roof.

Dang, why can't I see the pics??????

Ahh, so it's not just me.

 

[LandCruiserPhil]

Well I'm still blaming Phil!

Bring it on bitchs I have strong shoulders

 

[warezdog]

Another Phil idea I'm stealing!

What does it all mean, Basil?

 

[B Point]

Nah...I think it's Phil. What the hell did you go and break now...??

 

[bhicks]

What the heck!?!? Why is it that recently everyone is posting cool stuff I want. I love the boat hatch idea and that size seems perfect. One for each side of the tailgate. Craaap! Now I have another mod to add to my list. My wife is gonna get pissed when she sees my updated mod list.

Hahaha! I like how after someone posts up a mod they did Phil's like, "Been there done that like 10 years ago!"

 

[NLXTACY]

Only because Phil is easily 10 years older than all of us. He's the mud curmudgeon waiting to take the reigns from @cruiserdan

 

[thatcabledude]

Double post

Subd. Hopefully I can see the picture eventually. Still don't load for me.

Thats funny...you forgot the part about piss and vinegar

Phil lives off his tailgate, so the partial access is more practical here. Pics in this thread posts 43,45

Damn that rules!!! Way to go.

You know if you put that spare tire where it belongs. You would not have to stuff crap in your tailgate.
" I know I'm not the only one to think this". Any ways clean job. Yes its added to my list

Ahhhh.....liking this one very much (and the avoided cost of the big WG one) - I've been stashing/pushing around the cargo area - a pair of jumper cables & a tow strap (cheapie for on-road "good guy" situations) & always wanted to use the space inside the tailgate, but wasn't willing to fork out ~$400 for a WG setup(nice as they seem) - nor did I **need** WG space.

Funny thing is I walk on that same style hatch on the bow of my boat where anchor rope stashes, never did the math & thought of this.

Phil you said the hatch doesn't sit on the wood that the carpet is glued to so how far does the hatch protrude? My drawers clear the carpet by about 1/2" and it appears this hatch would clear.

X2 on this question. I would like to know how much the hatch protrudes up from the carpet.
