Magnetic4R's 3rd row drawer system Part 1

It's almost there, 90%. Need to do the detail final touch up and figure a way to secure them. I had revised the original plan and decided to add a couple of extra slide out. The main bottom will be for my recovery gears. The top drawer is for tools and the top tray is my slide out for the cooler or whatever. Overall dimension is 10H x 21W x 35L. Obviously, I wemy this route to allow the use of the used row. Part 2 will be the right second half. Can't post multiple pix on my phone so this one will do.

Material Lists:
1. Home Depot 5/8" Sanded Pine Plywood - $35
2. 28" GlideRite 100lbs ball bearing drawer slides x3 - $45
3. Rubber-Cal Diamond Plate Rubber Flooring 1/8" x 4' x 6' - $48
4. Pit Posse - two 4' Aluminum tied down track w/ 4 rings - $56
5. Rustoleum Bed Liner Spray x 3 - $18
6. Black 3/16" x 2' x 4' Black chalk board - $10

Total: $212
You can cut the cost in half by eliminating the Diamond Plate rubber flooring and the Aluminum tied down track.

Gonna definitely follow this thread. I considered the same thing because I use the 3rd row quite often. I'm curious to see how you have them bolted down and how easy it is to remove. I racked my brain several ways and just couldn't come up with something I was satisfied with.

Also, how are you dealing with the shallow height of the cargo area for a fridge?

Anyway, thanks for leading this for us 1%ers that need the 3rd row but still want to wheel our trucks and have storage.
 
Coming along quite nicely!

Thanks!

There's a few things that needs to be work out. Going to Yosemite so won't have much time until I get back to finish. Since the 2nd row slide and have rails, I will most likely secure and mount to that bolt. I don't have a fridge and don't think I need one any time soon but I have plenty of space for my 70qt cooler.

Very nice
 
very nice [MENTION=107460]Magnetic4R[/MENTION]!

I was planning on building something similar for me, would be interested in hearing/seeing how you have the unit secured...

Still working on it but most likely 2 D-rings mounted to the back and lashing strap mounted to the 2 seat rails bolts
 
Here's a few more pix

very interesting mounting idea [MENTION=107460]Magnetic4R[/MENTION]... definitely interested to see more pics and follow along as it looks awesome :tea:

BTW, how much does the unit way empty? 5/8 is pretty hefty stuff...

Need to bend that tab in the back 90 degree. Not too many choices but those should do for its purpose.

Both drawers should be about <80-100lbs ?

This is "sticky" worthy! Now I need some detailed measurements so I can copy the hell out of this. All 3rd row owners rejoice!
[MENTION=66316]1engineer[/MENTION] sticky? "3rd row with removable storage drawers" or something like that?

Great build... looking to copy most of what you have done. Question for you though... did you have to remove some parts to get to the tie downs as you have shown in your pictures? i just got a 2016 and am struggling to match up what you show to mine.
