What are you doing for cargo management?

Just wondering, I see all the little books and crannies in the bed. What are you guys using? I’m leaning toward just a 2x6 cut to width..4aabe0a6a1dc576251f3b166ba251c90.jpg

In my '16 I had 2x6 boards in the slots. I had a large plastic bin sitting between the rear board and tailgate and bicycle fork brackets on the front board. My '19 didn't have the spray-on bedliner from the factory so I just opted for the drop-in liner. The drop-in doesn't have any slots for a board which is kind of annoying, but I ended up using an adjustable shower curtain rod I had laying around to hold the bin at the tailgate. It also came with some storage nets to go between the wheel wells and the rear corners. I'm not sure what I'm going to do for the bicycles, though.

Also, I came from a Tacoma where I had one of those telescoping bars. Even stretched all the way out it won’t fit in the bed of my ‘19.

Gilligan, any pics of the bike fork setup?

 

I don't have any pics but here's the link to the ones I used:

I just used some wood screws to screw them to the 2x6 board. The board sat far enough back that the bikes cleared my Bak hard rolling cover, worked great. I just wish I had the slots on the drop-in liner on the '19. I've got a couple ideas but I'm not really sure they'll work until I get a chance to start trying some stuff.

You're happy with it?  I've been thinking of doing the same thing so I can clean out the under seat storage.

Yeah , I probably wouldn’t be happy if I paid the $200 though. It was a comp.  

I like it.

I have an undercover swing case as well. I'm very happy with it. I paid full price on Amazon, which I believe was just a shade under $200 delivered.

I keep all my random straps, hooks, etc in there and I also have a 2x4 cut for the rear slots so if we end up at costco on a saturday morning I don't have to crawl up to the front of the bed to get the milk out.

    • Well....I've done my first intake gasket. Probably wrong, but...we'll see?   Ultra black on the china walls and 1/4" up onto the sides of the intake gaskets. Permatex High Tack (couldn't find Gaskachinch) on the head side of the intake gasket. I read wrong and it says you're supposed to put it on the mating surface of the head, not the gasket. Hoping it's like a PB&J sandwich where it doesn't matter what side the PB goes on so long as there's jelly. That crap is messy/sticky and I got a dab or two on the intake port openings, tried to wipe it off. Hopefully it won't be a big deal and will only aid in sealing.   Per instructions I left the intake (top side) of the gasket dry except for a light smear of RTV around the coolant ports. Wiggling the intake in there was a bear but I had help to free me of surrounding wiring/stuff but I was basically able to set it straight down lined up with the bolt holes.   I did not think to wait until the RTV skinned over but there probably was 5-10 minutes while it sat before installing the intake.   Bolts finger tight first. Then, followed the Chilton's manual pattern to snug them to 15 lb-ft.   Waited a little over an hour, and then did the final torque in sequence again to 35 lb-ft.   Yesterday I replaced the fuel pressure regulator and got my new "nut and bolt kit" (fuel lines) installed. Damn GM used security torx on the spider, which I don't have, so I got scammed at the local HW store for an off-brand security Torx bit set.   The new driver's door mirror arrived yesterday, so, there's a chance this thing could be running and road legal tomorrow? I don't want to get my hopes up.   This will be my first time stabbing a distributor, too. Although, lucky me, someone else marked the old distributor for removal previously, I did see that. (Someone's been here before!!). Engine is still at TDC so it *should* be just a matter of transferring the mark to the new dizzy and rotating it into place.
    • He has his dad’s newer truck he’s put away. He has several old cars he rotates between him and his family. I’ve seen a restored square body and a SS Chevy truck he’s sometimes drives. He did raffle off a new suburban recently. As much as he is watched if he drove new stuff as a rule we’d know it. It would be fine by me. I don’t care what people prefer. I got one more new one in me. I’d rather my wife get one. I can’t get her out of the Genesis. Don’t tell anyone. I want her to get an electric truck. I want to put a generator in the back. Just because. She hasn’t bit yet.
    • Yes, you must have seen my thread on the Blazer. HOT GARBAGE, but I love them anyway. I'm convinced every car guy has a soft sport for an S/T series somewheres. Probably even a Panther too, if I'm being an honest car guy. That doesn't mean they aren't junk. And they definitely don't get better with age. I sometimes play with old cars, but that's by choice. I don't rely on them and they aren't my everyday fleet.   Derek plays the common man on Youtube and that's no doubt where he started. Now he has Youtube money (and Motortrend, etc). You think his crews and his wife ride around in old beaters when they're chasing him and his wrecks across the country? No he's got newer and nicer stuff for that, you'll see glimpses of it in the footage.
    • You refuse to own anything made in this century yet you reportedly own... a 2007 Silverado, which is now almost 20 years old. The dissonance.... turn up your hearing aid?   You clearly don't understand the government contracting process, brother. We send people to die on front lines, keep the public safe, and make people's husbands, wives, children enter burning buildings with equipment from .....wait for it.....   ...the lowest bidder....   Just because something is used for a long time doesn't mean it's good. But it might be cheap and plentiful.   Please, continue to whine about new trucks in a thread dedicated to new trucks, which you've said you'll never own. We get it. Go tell everyone how you're stuck in time on a Panther forum. I mean, Jesus, an 86 isn't even one of the good Panthers.
