Hi all, 

 

I just brought home my 2020 RST and I'm looking for some sort of bed management system to be able to hold groceries or whatnot in the bed without it flying everywhere. Most of my truck buddies just get a 2x6 and put in towards the back of the bed and it hold stuff but I was wondering if there was anything else out there. 

 

Post pictures of what you use!

Couple 2 x 6’s have always worked for me! The grooves in the bed and tailgate hold things nicely in place when driving. That and some good toolboxes that lock together works perfectly. Oh and the multi pro tailgate is absolutely amazing. Makes the whole bed so much more accessible! 34935C97-9336-4BD4-8FD6-DACFA197420A.jpeg.85520b958f6f9ca7f54222769fdffc3d.jpeg

Yep, I use a 2x6 also. I sprayed mine with bed liner coating and also made moveable pieces that prevent items from sliding side by side.

Wow, that center piece is genius! Definitely going to steal that.

That’s awesome, stealing as well!

Thanks.

On my 2500, the distance from the 2x6 to the tailgate is roughly the same as it is to the wheel well, so it works nice to create a contained space in both areas. I made a couple of the short pieces for both sides.
I have a front accessible hard tonneau cover so I may do something similar in the front of the box also, to keep items from sliding back.

Nice - That movable piece is genius!

What rug is that?

Just the Chevy-branded version of the normal BedRug kit. They were all about the same price when I bought it, figured I might as well have the bow tie logo...?

No problem! Hope it works out well for you. 
 

Here’s other pics I took with the tailgate closed & the divider up front. I’ll probably make longer pieces that fit better up front.

    • On 2021 3500hd it consistently sets automatically when selecting park if the incline/decline is above a certain angle. 
    • Curious, did anyone ever get a fix for the vibration reported here.   I have a 2024 Silverado with 6.6 duramax.   I’m noting the same vibration resonating up through the steering shaft into the steering wheel.    Best way to describe- like someone is tapping on the steering shaft/components and it’s resonating into the steering wheel.    thanks. 
    • Hi friends - first time poster. I have a 2015 sierra Denali with 150k miles, I’m the second owner and she’s given me 75k of great service. I run a pulse AFM disable device. Starting Thursday when I exited the freeway after a short local ride it started idling rough, with an obvious misfire shake and was down on low end power.  I got it home and hooked it up to my scannner and found no codes but in live data a pretty bad misfire on cylinder 5. I replaced the coil, plug and wire with all new OE replacements (Delphi gn10165 coil, acdelco wire and 41-168 plug). It’s still behaving the same way after firing the parts cannon at it.   I know cyl 5 is a non AFM cylinder so I am not thinking this is AFM related but I’m kinda at a loss. injector? Bent pushrod? It’s running too well over 1k rpm to suggest those IMO. Has anyone chase this issue before and what was it? Any suggestions? 
    • 2017 Silverado L83 5.3l 6speed transmission Hello, not a new member but havent posted in a while and my old signup info isnt working so had to create a new account. anyways, I have an issue with my truck and hope someone can spread some light on whats happening: -when it goes to 4cyl mode it makes a clunk sound (but not when coasting or going downhill) -when in 4 cyl mode and under load it makes a load pulsating sound (not a tick). -goes away completely when in M5 gear or when plugging in an AFM delete. Im guessing it is one of 2 things but im not convinced of either to be honest. 1. lifter stuck in v8 mode 2. torque converter shudder realistically it doesn't seem like the TC as there is no physical vibration , and it never happens in v8 mode. but maybe? and wouldnt a lifter make a sound whether with load or not? any ideas let me know please. thank you!  
    • Which has made me wonder with the various engine failures of a few brands in the last few years, is it sub par materials such as lifters etc causing failures, or bearing clearances on the crank etc or perhaps bad designing of an engine physically or causing too much load on the components due to the hp/torque they can push out of them. Or is the oil viscosity and additive package of current oils or a lack of oil flow by an oil pump not able to supply sufficient oil at idle or under high load at low rpm. Or is it every item I listed that combined together has pushed the limits so far to the left that there is hardly a margin of safety left and add in some fuel dilution and too long of an OCI and premature engine failure is the result ?.
