Lets face it, the 3rd row seats in the back of the Y62 are annoying. I get it, some people need to haul 7 people. But why couldn't Nissan have designed them to be able to fold FLAT for gods sake!
As with everything on these vehicles, there are plenty of really slick false floor kits in Australia, but none here in the US of A. This evening I built version 1.0 of my own. Pretty simple, really. I got a 4' square piece of particle board and used two of the bolt holes on the cross brace behind where the jack is to line everything up. Then I modified four wall shelving brackets (yes, really) to mount to the 3rd row's four front bolt points and support the front of the floor. Installed four tie down point that I had laying around from an old Samurai project and voila!
Now, as mentioned this is very much version 1.0! I've got a family trip to Moab this weekend, so I just needed something back there so I could put my fridge in. I'll tinker with this set up a bit more, then use this platform as the template for a much nicer, permanent false floor in the next month or so.
