I would have recommended 2x6's

Even though you didn’t mean it that way….

Working with my bulk storage/front support for this.

I think basically this, I am going to get something to strap things down between the two crosswise 2x4's.



I did have to notch the plywood a little to clear the indention for the fuel filler.



I am working on how to support the front of the sleeping deck when it is folded down but I think the basic concept is pretty much done.

Maybe you coulda stood the 2 by 4s on edge and saved some space... no?

That is how it started out and it would be easy to go back if decide to.

Phase II of this side quest is a support to support the trapdoor for the sleeping deck when the stores are out of the truck and it is time for bed.

When I go to do the support for the sleeping deck it kinda comes out at about a wash for room but I lose surface area to support the deck. And this way I also get lots of area to mount tie downs for stores compared to if they were on the side.

That is my current train of thought anyway...

Ok... now go clean up those tools you left laying in the driveway.
