    Has anybody ADDED a rear sliding cargo tray?

    mross217.... First) That is a sweet deck/storage combo.... Second) Nice use of a bottle opener as the pull... extremely practical!! Third) You have to post a build thread on that! If not, at least a "parts used" and specs (drawer sliders, materials, etc) so other's can knock you off!!

    Good luck with the install! I'd say there is about 1 1/5" of space between the deck and the tray under the drawer...

    Part hunting ended up being most of the work and I used the usual suspects in this order: New Parts 1st) Toyota parts guy at the local dealership (hit or miss - mostly miss) 2nd) RockAuto.com (usually successful for mechanical parts and big pieces) 3rd) Amazon.com (not a big fan but sometimes...

    Space under drawer I'd say there is about 1 1/5 inches under the drawer. The carpet is so thin there I don't know if it would add much to that - but depending on what you are putting there it could be the "magic amount"... I also was considering putting something between the sliding tray and...

    Step 4: Sliding tray install It's the home stretch. I'm so proud of you. Really. So let's wrap this up and get this done so we can go back to running errands and raking leaves. This part is really straight forward, especially now that you've gotten the hard part of drilling through the sheet...

    Step 3: Siding rail sub-assembly installation This is the only part of the install that is even somewhat tricky, and that is only because it requires you to do a little drilling... but don't worry, if you are willing to tackle a Kullen, Herdal or Hemnes then you should feel emboldened here as...

    Step 2 (cont): Installing the carpet liner, cargo tie downs and storage box I like to install in the exact reverse order that I take things out. It is a trick I learned reading "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance". (By the way, that book and the tricks in it has allowed me to tackle many...

    No... honestly this thing seems ridiculously quiet to me... But I come from rigs like a 81 Bj60, an 88 T4R, a 67 Fj40... you get the idea... a 2016 T4R seems like a monastery in comparison

    Step 2: Installing the carpet liner, cargo tie downs and storage box Now that you have the old liner out, it is time to start getting that nifty new sliding deck installed.... Here is what your bare cargo area should look like:

    step 1: removal of standard deck 1) Remove the two cargo tie downs closest to the rear seats - it helps to fold the seats down to get them out of the way. To access the bolts, just use your flat head screwdriver to flip up the access cover (see pics 1 and 2). Neatly bag these up for whoever you...

    Hey guys - I know that the rear sliding cargo tray/deck is a bit of a love it or hate it thing. Although my rig (2016 SR5) didn't come with one from the factory, I found myself squarely in the "love it" crowd so I decided to take matters into my own hands. With a little help from another forum...
