Unfortunately I do not have dimensions or drawings. I measured everything when I was building and wrote it down with a sharpie on the wood I was using. I made everything off the cuff!

$132.40 Storage & Sleeping
If you are thinking of going low end - this is about what it takes:
Carpet, padding and 2 sheets of 3/4" 4x4 plywood - $23 each.
(2) 2x8x8
(2) 2x3x8
Various turnbuckles, screws, staples.
Went with (2) tubs from Target instead of drawers - partly for weight, partly for ease.
Storage was pretty easy - used the usual tie downs with turnbuckles.
Removed seat cushions and sleeping platforms rest on the seat backs.
They were easy to build and annoying to figure out how to keep them secure and not shift/tip.
Storage Box - 53lbs
60% Sleep Side - 25lbs
40% Sleep Side - 17lbs

Made these a while back, never got around to posting photos. Used tons of inspiration from the site.

Padding gives you the .25
Any of the cheap indoor/outdoor carpets at HD or Lowe's are so thin it almost doesn't count.
The thickness comes from the padding.
I used the pre-cut 6'x8' rug pad from HD - think it was $24.
Pre-cut 6'x8' pieces of carpet are also available and 1/2 as much as the stuff on the roll.
That's why I went with grey instead of trying to match the black OEM carpet.

I've been debating something like this as I finally am considering a fridge. How are the front legs attached to the tiedown bolt hole?
One thing that makes me think twice about this is I sleep in the back when solo camping and this eliminates the flat floor.

That is well executed. those tie downs are essentially useless to me, so I'd like to do something similar..

Each leg is simply bolted in utilizing longer hardware. The front feet I had to make a rubber spacer between the frame and the floor to make it level.
There is ~3" difference in height in that section of the floor so certainly wouldn't let you lay flat unless you tried to raise the rest of the floor where the seats are folded down somehow.
BTW - if anyone is interested and is in the DC Area this setup is going to be listed on the For Sale Thread...I sold the 4Runner in January.

Dometic is having a sale on their last gen fridges. They just came out with a new line but more features and such but if all you need is a fridge then the last gen stuff is a good deal.

Any Dobinsons drawer users out there? Has really caught my eye because of the clean full-coverage panels and price point compared to other setups. I'd love to hear some feedback!

I saw that and grabbed one of them! 35% off was a great deal.
