Custom Alloy Tray Build for the V6 Chevy Luv. Some Welding Required...

What is a ute, without a tray? Time to fire the welder up and burn my eyeballs.

In the planning stage of this job for myself... thanks for the video, you're a legend. Helps so much when you can visualise things.

Curious to what gas tank you have?

[@mechanicalmisadventures]

I custom made the tank out of 3mm aluminium sheet. Couldn’t find one that fitted where I wanted it, at a price I could afford so I just made one🤷🏻‍♂️

Good video mate, I enjoyed watching it

[@RyvalCreative]

Great video 👌

[@kpersad92]

Great job was wondering how much the build totalled?

[@mechanicalmisadventures]

Thanks mate. I think materials all up cost around $400

[@lorcosgarage9443]

Well! Could you please tell me the size of your tubings ? And size of the 2 aloy U of chassis part please ? Nice build !

[@mechanicalmisadventures]

50x50 x 2mm for the main shape. I think it was 75x50x6mm for the u shape, and 25x25x2mm for the internal bits and pieces. Thanks mate👌

[@JoshSmith-dq9hz]

Great idea! What wall thickness were you using?

[@mechanicalmisadventures]

2mm from memory mate.

Looks good, do you have enough of a gap at the head board to allow for flex?

[@mechanicalmisadventures]

Thanks mate. Not entirely sure what you mean? Like if the headboard vibrates/moves and touches the cab? If so, yes there's about 30mm between the two.👌
