    DECKED Truck Bed Storage System Test and Review

    I do mean a system very close to theirs, however I do not like how the ARE system protrudes into the bed area as far as it does, I want the actuators to mount through the bed rails and be tucked up as close to the interior bed sides as possible. I think looking at the Decked system that there...

    DECKED Truck Bed Storage System Test and Review

    Very cool, thanks for the time and ideas! I have been researching bladders and also the possibility of some kind of custom poly tank for potable water storage. Currently working on a system to raise and lower the camper shell as sort of a "pop top" using heavy duty linear actuators, really need...

    DECKED Truck Bed Storage System Test and Review

    Really looking hard at this system, not so much for its intended storage usage, but for the flat sleeping area. And most of all using the drawers to house water and propame storage as well as a pull out kitchen and sink. Think stove, cutting board, kitchen supplies in the front of one drawer...

    '11 Suzuki SX4 AWD

    What kind of offset have you had luck with as far as rubbing goes? I wish I would have just did the 15" swap when I did the lift and bigger tires, at the time it just made sense to stick with the stock wheels and have them powder coated. Thanks for the reply, I figured if you had your stock set...

    '11 Suzuki SX4 AWD

    Cool car man and nice thread. We traded in a 2003 Audi Allroad in 2011 for a brand new 6sp tech package (does have the heated seats and nav) for all of the same reasons that you stated initially. Funny its even the same color. Wore out the first set of tires and then installed the Rocky Road...

    Looking for Forum Members to Test a DECKED Storage System

    First, thanks for the opportunity! Wonderful to see a fellow Idahoan coming up with innovative solutions for those of us who consider our vehicles part of life's adventure! I would love to throw our hat in the ring. We base our active lives out of a 2004 Dodge Ram 2500, it takes us to the ski...

    Truck bed padding....please help!

    Looks like about what we use when camping from the pickup. A bedrug, and then two of the 4" medium density "camping pads" that are sold at most places that sell camping supplies. I used an electric knife and cut out the wheel wells. They lay down longitudinally, and roll up when not in use.
