I'm in Canada and got mine this time last year for around $2500, should definitely be possible

Just ordered black Sumo Springs for my truck and am about to order Eibach rear shocks for it as well. The ride quality has been horrible since new and since I added a topper and drawer system to the bed its even worse. Anyone have this combination? I'm worried the Sumo Springs will just cancel...

All finished up, have other projects to move on too so kinda had to rush to the end. Got the rubber all glued down on the top and the aluminum trim on the edge. Cut the extra rubber to line the drawer bottom.

The decked system definitely has its merits with the water resistance and strength but the height and lost space around it is a killer to me at least.

Got the other hatch made and the big piece of rubber cut and glued down. Just gotta do the sides and the other two pieces of aluminum trim and this project will be all wrapped up.

That looks like a really nice drawer unit, your brackets are exactly what I had planned for mine if it ends up needing them

Nearing the finish line, top made and one side cover made and installed. Sprayed some silicone spray on the slides and exposed wood and the drawers open and close effortlessly. Not worried about changing out the vinyl slides at all now.

Drawers and cubbys all painted up, just need to make the top and hatches.

Ill custom cut some nice rubber mat I bought to cover the top, once its decked over the wheel well cutouts in a bed mat wont be needed anymore.

That same kit is almost $200 in Canada unfortunately. I may get some at some point for it but for now I think the rubber mat will work well enough on top.

I've seen so many 1/2 ton trucks with those giant old campers in the bed, never good when your headlights are signaling aircraft and your hitch receiver is acting as a wheelie bar on the big bumps.

Nothing too fancy, I don't love the giant chrome T-handles but they make it so you unlock it and slide it out in one smooth motion rather than having a latch and a secondary pull handle. Lights are tempting and I really like the idea of the ones underneath the drawers. I don't think I need any...

Weight is definitely a concern, I bought five sheets of .75" Plywood. One sheet was Birch for the drawers which is around 50 pounds worse case. The rest I assume about 40 pounds a sheet. I'm gonna use about 85% of it by the end so I'm guessing somewhere between 150-200 pounds for the whole...

Got some more done, bottom and sides all painted. Took it all apart and reassembled it in the truck in about 30 minutes. Only one screw that didn't pull tight so much better than I was expecting.

Great idea, I'll have to remember that for any that aren't pulling tight on install.

Other latch finished and both boxed in so stuff in the drawers won't interfere with the mechanism. All that's left now is paint, assembly into the truck and make the top and hatches.

Got the latch made on one side, was planning two locking bars but pretty sure one will be more than enough.

Yours serves its purpose well ?Its too bad Ford hadn't added some storage to the bed on these like Tacomas always had. It would obviously be popular.

I have aluminum angle I was gonna trim around them with but you've got me thinking lol, was kinda wondering what it would look like if I scorched them with a torch and stained/sealed them with a dark stain/poly combo.

Got the little slides attached to the sides of the box and the back of the drawer. Attached the drawer faces, now onto the latch mechanism. Am copying a YouTube video with the slide setup and latch so not my design.
