GEN 2 Rear seat storage options

[Wes_Sprad]

Hey guys, just got a gen 2, and would like to put some kind of storage system under the rear seat. Problem is I have two kiddos so, raising the rear seat to get to a normal box doesn't seem functional, anybody know of something like a drawer system? Or any options really?

Are both kids in car seats that are strapped down?

Thats a tough one then. I thought I saw a storage box once that folded down in the front which would be ideal but have not been able to find it since. I have the Oedro which is plastic and runs the length of the truck underneath but you need to be able to lift a seat. I only have one in a car seat now and the other one was in a booster and we made it work. Depending on how long you are til a booster for one of them - you might have to wait. Been looking at getting the Tuffy lately for the lockability.

These Ridgid brand boxes fit perfectly underneath the seats and can be slid out by grabbing the handles/stacking locks on the outside. Seats don't need to be raised!

I'm in a similar situation as you with two car seats in the back. I saw this video posted on here a while ago and saved it to build it myself. Haven't gotten around to it yet but it would likely fit the bill for you as well!

It looks like they're too wide to fit three in a row under the seats, or were you able to do it?

I only run one of these. I would guess you could fit 2 Ridgid boxes

Got it. Thanks. That's a great find either way, just wish I could fit three versus building a drawer. You could always relocate the cases if you needed the cargo/floor space.

Agreed. I found the drawer video posted above early on, its definitely an ideal solution. You might be able to run three if the middle one was run in-line with the center console/loss of foot area for middle passenger.

These cases do have a rubber gasket and advertise it to "prevent against water and dust damage". I'd gladly throw them in the bed / exposed to elements but probably wouldn't be putting anything inside them I wouldn't be ok with getting water/dust damage in the even the seal(s?) fail.
