- Don’t clutter your pickup bed with a huge toolbox. Hide all your tools inside the cab under your rear seat. You don’t use that space anyway so take advantage of it!

Don’t want to build one? Now you can buy one!

I have one, the Deezee is extremely cheaply made. Pretty disappointing how cheap it is put together, especially for a $500 item
"Tools that fire projectiles." lmao that is a great explanation without getting demonetized.
What an ingenious invention. We took an 80 day road trip and it was such a pain to take everything off the seat to get to the storage under the seat? Thank you Sssooo much for sharing
I had my doubts with that thin wood, but I was actually impressed with the end result.
same
One important item that really should be considered is to secure the toolbox (really any heavy item) so it doesn't become a potential source of injury in an accident or quick maneuver. An emergency stop has the potential for this loaded toolbox to slide into the feet of the rear passengers.
Good point. It can be secured to the seat mounts with a cable or chain. I went the simple route of just making a 3 sided wall to keep things tucked under the seats and simply bungee corded the contraption to the seat mounts.
Love this. Dude, this is a Shark Tank moment if ever there was one.
My right ear loved the intro
One thing you could add is tiny feet (strips) on the bottom that fit into the slots in the floor mat to prevent a forward slide.
I just built this for my F250 over the weekend. I made it a touch wider and longer. Fricken awesome! Man, you should make a patent!
Do you know how much it costs for a patent? 20 years ago it was $50,000!
@@SuperSpecialty It's a lot less than than. U.S. PTO has a listing of fees www.uspto.gov/learning-and-resources/fees-and-payment/uspto-fee-schedule#Patent%20Fees I'm not a great builder... and I don't have a workshop... and I could really use one of those for my truck!
Do you have dimensions/plans for this?
Possible alternative to carpet in the drawers are the rubber kitchen shelf mats.
I have them in my motor home and those things are like magnets!
Keeps stuff from shifting and rattling....
I have a second Gen Raptor and want that exact box in metal with locking features for a black rifle on the driver side. You really need to be manufacturing these, as there is nothing on the market (that I can find) that is as nice. Great work by the way!
Matt
Could easily be designed to have one on each side that pulls out with a shoulder holster & pistol and an AR with spare mags.....
In these times of riots, this would be a great money maker..... I hate Ford, but I might be tempted to buy a new truck if I could get that double drawer system....
Rick Sanchez C137 - agreed. I found a lot of room behind my rear seat which is great for a black rifle and Amazon sells a magazine well lock with aircraft cable tether, so I feel fairly secure, but these drawers would be better and quicker to deploy.
I love my WeatherTech under seat storage that I put in my F-150. However, this is SWEET with the slide out feature, especially considering you don't have to lift the seat up to access your stuff. Thank you for the video!!
My right ear enjoyed the audio..but my left ear is now jealous...luckily about 1/2 way through, both ears were happy! :)
It’s about time someone is utilizing all the wasted space in vehicles. I hope to see your products on the shelf one day👍
In a world of the aftermarket I haven’t seen this kind of storage system anywhere , what a great idea ! . I feel ya better throw a patent on it soon . Cheers
The Tundra has like 15 aftermarket versions of this (but they don't go back to the back wall of the truck, because of seatbelt mounts).
check out Du ha systems.. been around for years
Update: it’s going into production!!

I need this for my 2020 Ram crew cab!!!! Awesome build!
@Zero to Awesome - Dude, can you just make me one? That company ain’t never gone release this cool product lol
this is the kind of stuff car manufactures should be doing
Ford would probably sell you this drawer set as an accessory for 800.00 😒
Man, you sound like Jim Halpert. The more I listen, the more I’m convinced you must be related.
Very cool box idea.
Nicely done; might consider trying it with bottom-mount, rather than side-mount, drawer slides
This is great! I really wish the under seat area under in my '19 ranger had space for something like this. Great work!
Thanks for sharing this great idea and design. I made one for my F150 using slightly thicker wood so my drawers are a bit smaller but still big enough to be useful.
That’s just awesome! I’ve written comments to RUclips videos maybe twice in the last many years, but I felt compelled to write my 3rd to this one. Fantastic job! I have been looking for the solution to the same problem, and you nailed. Hopefully it comes back to you with the reward you deserve for being such an innovator! Simply amazing. Great job!!
Thanks! It’s going into production soon!

Wow that is the best under seat storage I've ever seen for our trucks! I'd honestly order one from you tonight!!
Makes me appreciate my Ram that already has under seat storage plus 2 storage bins in the floor under the mat from the factory. I have tons of recovery gear and tools in there. Nice work though. Where there's a will, there's a way. I'm sure by now you know how valuable that space is. My only other suggestion would be to come up with a way to put longer objects in there (over 2 ft). Perhaps 2 different size drawers, or leave the rear of the drawer and partition shorter and level to allow a a triangular gap where something longer could be placed in there sticking over into the next compartment. I stow a crow bar, breaker bar and a monster adjustable wrench under there (all stuff to work on suspension if needed).
Beautiful! Can't wait to build one for my 2020 F-150. Didn't realize there was so much space under those seats. Thanks!
What a smart and skilled man. Way to go! Wish you were my neighbor.
Lol I have this baby problem 😂 Spoken like a man whose wife is out of earshot. Great idea 👍
"I have this baby problem". >> That's what she said.
Hahaha baby problem
NICE ! Built not Bought is ALWAYS More (Valuable) IMO. Plenty are perfectly content “writing a check”, and that’s Them. But, why even Watch vids like this, if you’re so inclined to have others do (it) for you ? 🤷🏻♂️. I mean, CLEARLY this guy has Plenty of Money (looking at his “stable”); but he Still takes the Pride of DIY 👍🏼
Good project, good job using that dead space. You had me when you threw that plastic roll. I like the click of the latch.
I detail cars for a living, and today I seen someone build something like this! He custom fabricated everything specifically for his truck! I told him how cool that was, and I need one! Now fast forward about 10 hours. I think I need to start making one! Also, great video! Will be subscribing to see more content!
Looks great. I don't have a baby seat but when traveling sometimes we have luggage and to get to bottom is a pain. Great idea
There might be one thing that I would add. A couple of heavy duty velcro strips holding the box to the mat. That way you wouldn't have to worry about it moving forward if you had to make a hard stop.
i love this idea. i think i'm going to use 7/16 osb for the box and some gutters for drawers. ty for this idea.
Great idea. You should try making a single drawer version with locks. It would be great for hunters.
You should patent it and sell the idea to the big 3 truck companies. 👍
Very Nice. May I suggest that the top part of the box have hinges so that you can also access your stuff without pulling out the drawers.
Great idea and good explanation on the build. One more thing to consider adding might be some straps to help secure the box in the event of a crash. I think one or two straps attached on the backside would do the trick and might also slow down someone trying to steal a locked version of the box. The latch idea was sweet!
I used really sturdy plastic planter boxes that were just the right length. I added a simple backer piece to the seat rails and then some disconnects to the planter boxes. It is just as durable as those $100 plastic boxes. I often lift my seats and need to remove the boxes due to an older dog. These are really nice and a great video for 4 door trucks. I have the Ex cab.
Great solution!
Great idea! I've 2X car seats in the back of my F150 and have been looking to re-claim some storage from my kids endless crap
Had something very similar on my truck when I bought it. It was all metal, Havis product I believe. The truck use to be a tow truck. I ended up removing mine because I hull stuff in the back with the seat folded up all the time. But if one left their seats down all the time I could see it being very useful!
That was great. I can't believe Ford couldn't figure that out.
Well damn, that’s more useful than most of the $1000 toolboxes I’ve seen in the back of trucks.
I just love how you say "tools that fire projectiles" because when I saw your drawers... that's immediately what I thought of...I didn't think about 'tools'
This is really cool, I’m surprised no one (that I’ve seen) has manufactured a setup like this.
Welcome to the future: ruclips.net/video/2OcoYbVbqGE/видео.html
@@ZeroToAwesome oh damn, that’s neat! That’s for replying man, super cool of you!
Definitely a great idea to patent. I, like most people, have a f150 and would love more storage ( who wouldn't), and low and behold you've created one. Consider me a subscriber. 2 THUMBS UP 👍👍.
Welcome!
I like that you built it yourself. Nothing beats ability.
Very nicely done. Another idea is to make the drawers open top, and simply mount the slide to the bottom of the drawer, and to the cab floor. Then the whole drawer just slides on the floor of the truck.
Of course this truck is very nice to be modifying the cab floor like that, but on a work truck trim, it's an option.
Kinda turned out like that!
ruclips.net/video/MCDdAEVDOI4/видео.html
I have been looking for this solution for years!!!! Thank you!
My Nissan truck has these built in. Nice work on these .
Very cool idea, I would put some protective piece on the front panel like a rubber or hard plastic. That way when your vacuuming or if someone sits back there. It doesent get scuffed up.
Awesome build! You've inspired me to go for it
At 17:37, a tip for the hole saw to avoid the peeling of the laminate (seen on the inside). Start drilling your hole and only get it started 1/4 to 1/2 way through. Then, drill from the other side. It makes for a much cleaner edge on the hole. Nice idea for the slider box. Thanks for posting.
GREAT VIDEO AND A GREAT IDEA.....I BUILT A FEW SIMULAR BOXES WITH DRAWERS FOR MY S-10 BLAZERS SEVERAL YEARS AGO.....BUT I DID NOT KNOW ABOUT THE LATCHES THAT YOU USED.....KEEP THE GOOD VIDEOS COMING.....
I love your Truck, its beautiful. That color is outstanding. Excellent job on the Tool Box. I have a 2013 Crewcab and might be doing this very soon.
Thanks for the video! I have a 97 short bed f150, with a tool box so I have no space for anymore tool storage in the bed. My seats unfortunately fold down and not up, but! This gave me plenty of Ideas🤘🏼🤘🏼
SWEET!!!!!👍 my next project is that. As a carpenter & a commercial equipment tech,
I got this, plus just about half the materials already yeeeehaww
This is great! I've been looking for a bed-toolbox replacement since I want to go to a tonneau cover. This is perfect. Thanks, man!
Awesome project! One safety point for folks who will have passengers not in carseats: consider running tie-down straps to hold it in place during emergency stops. 20 pounds of stuff in a 20 pound box can easily break legs. We had a local child fatally injured by a 5 pound plastic speaker in a collision a few years back. Flew off the package shelf and crushed her skull.
I'm thinking about building something similar, but in my case the drivers side would be a charging station for my drill batteries, jump-starter battery, and a little carry around battery pack that I use to run my laptop for a day or two without "shore power". I like to use light colors inside the drawers so the contents are easier to see in dim conditions. I'll keep heat and ventilation in mind, and route a 12V accessory cable directly into the system. I'm also thinking I'd like a simple system to be sure it stays in place until I want it to move, like a couple of loops and a carabiner for each side. Thanks for a good head start.
When you were talking about the bed box, I couldn't get the GET DECKED advertisement it's my head!
I don’t know if it was already said! But you should fasten the drawer case some how in such a way that it stays in place and doesn’t crush legs if an urgent stop is needed ! Great job by the way.. I love it !
The best option is Walmart ! I bought a hard plastic rifle case with foam guts from Walmart for - $10 ! All my tools , a chain , a new strap , ball hitch , and other stuff fit in and nothing rattles ! I had to trim some of the foam so the new strap would let it close !
My right ear loved this video
“I have this baby problem” I know what you meant but still made me laugh
Jumped into the comments to see who else thought that was hilarious!!!
Harrison Sisco
Almost every adult male throughout history has thought this..... very few actually said it aloud.....
Exactly. Vasectomy eliminated That “Problem” ..... ime
Ah baby is a beautiful thing
Nice job! My 2008 Tacoma 4 door has both behind the backseat storage and under the backseat storage so no need for me!
I'm actually going to look into making this for my truck.
Get a subwoofer speaker box , and carry on from there ... nice idea
At your local home goods store they have these expanded/perforated foam sheets like drawer liners but used for keeping rugs from sliding on hard wood floors.
They make perfect tool drawer liners and come in HUGE sheets for a lot less than those little drawer liners.
Can you show me what you mean? I’m interested in what you are describing
Excellent idea. I’d like to see a way to lock the box down in the cab. Worst case scenario is an accident where that box becomes a projectile in your cab.
Not only do I have "this baby problem" I have this drive shaft hump problem in my 2018 Silverado. I need this in my life. Especially for my "lead thrower"
You did a hell of a job on that toolbox! I’ll be making one for mine very soon! Thanks for the how to video
This could also work with bent aluminum and a rivet gun if somebody really wanted it to be metal. I really like this, I hadn't thought of that space as a storage space myself. Genius
Came Upon Your Channel by chance. Became a sub because of your side comments! LOOKS GREAT
Weathertech makes a storage bin that rides in the same place as the system you made here. They make it out of the same material as their floormats, its an open top bin so you have to lift the seat to get to it, but for those that want out of the way storage and dont have that baby problem, the bin is quicker.
Man! That's awesome. We always get hosed on storage for trucks. My 2500 HD has next to not storage.
I just bought a aluminum locking box and bolted it under my back seat. Cheaper and stronger than all the plastic "storage" open top options.
“I have this baby problem.” I hear you there man 😮💨
I just got a 2016 f150 and also have a kid problem lol and this is perfect to store my kids stuff
I just got my first truck, but getting groceries was a nightmare. And I deff thought of this, but wasn't sure how to execute it. I was thinking pulling apart an old dresser and installing it im my truck. This is excellent 👌
Fantastic build! I’ve been wanting to do something like this for my 2011 Silverado. Thanks for the ideas
Watched most this before remembering I drive a single cab
It's Awesome !!
I would have used good quality dresser drawer slides or toolbox slides.
The slides you have are over kill.
But killer job !!!!
Great job making use of the space in the cab. Very complete and thorough build. Thank you for sharing with us! I look forward to building mine.
Very clean looking set up good job
That's your million bucks! Great job!
My 2019 F250 came with a built in collapsible box but no drawer...but for the truck bed, I got a Swing case take little room but accommodates a lot of tools.
Still, great job!
Awesome idea, storage is very handy in a truck.
When you call your raptor an f150. So modest.
Very cool.......but if I sat on that seat, it would render the drawer useless. Maybe a company will make them out of steel.
Again, very cool.
You get my thumbs up.
Noice! I need to make a mini version for the passenger side of my SCAB rear seat.
I would like one as well once you figure out how to secure it to the floor or metal brace under the seat. Very cool! Great idea!
my friedn secured on to the metal brace just by adding belts around it and then use some screws to atach the belts it semms good for DIY, he side slide he use some dor stopers on 2side tape :D
"I have this baby problem" 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I feel you bro, I feel you. Seriously though, great idea, and nicely done! 👍
Not a truck guy but these are awesome.
Awesome design bro, definitely would purchase this.
We have the same HD ratchet straps. I like the idea. I'm gonna adapt it for my truck, but I think I am gonna make it out of metal to hold my tools. IDK how to weld, but it also seems like a good project to learn on.
Good luck!
Very cool man! The black paint looks great, has a factory look on camera at least. Carpet was a great touch too. Really nice. :)
PERFECT for a long gun.
Pretty f'in sweet! My F150 is about to have a new tool box.
Oh man great idea, I just paid 250$ for a plastic bin and this is much better
Great idea! You could go a step further by making the top open in sections where the seats fold up so the storage can be accessed without opening the car doors. Useful for roadtrip food storage, etc.
Very good idea
Tools that fire projectiles OK that's what everybody was waiting for anyway. Always need a good place for those tools.
need to be metal and not wood though and box secured to truck also
Oh dude very nice job great idea and that’s bag holds your jack tools
