I had an opportunity to to buy a Truck Vault with the intention of try to modify it to fit in the 80 since they were too wide as was.
Removed to Top drawer. Pealed back the carpet and went to work. I needed to take 5” out of the width to make it fit between the wheel wells. This is after making my cuts and putting it back together.
I choose to take 5 inches out of the smaller to drawer.
The drawer going back together.
The front of the drawer is made from a nice composite material with a finished 1/8 rounded bevel that I was able to match easily with the router after I narrowed it to fit. I put it all back together with 3M carpet adhesive and some staples to finish of the exterior carpet.
Lots of storage inside. The small drawer is 7 1/4 inches wide inside. I think it would be a perfect drawer for fluids and trail tools, etc. to keep them separate from camp gear in the big box.
It looks good but I don’t think I am going to use it.
