I ordered one of these...cheap and cheerful...over $100 is still a lot for a piece of plastic, but I need a place to put gear under the rear seat. Anyone have it? Likes/dislikes? I bought it on Amazon in case I need to make use of their return policy.

I agree it's a lot for molded plastic but I spent about the same on my off-brand one from Amazon (linked below).  It works perfectly and is a great upgrade for interior storage.  Installation was very simple and only required a small cut to the factory floor liners I had to sit perfectly (which was noted in the listing so I knew it was happening).

Hello, that looks fine. I store quite a bit of stuff under the seat although I don't seem to use much of it. Lol.

 

I bought a Husky Liners Gearbox - Under Seat Storage Box | Fits 2019-2024 Chevrolet Silverado/GMC Sierra 1500 Double Cab, (2022 Limited) 2020-2024 Silverado/Sierra 2500,3500 Double Cab - Black, 1 Pc. | 09061 on Amazon as well. 

 

I also bought one of these for front seat storage if you have a jump seat. I picked up the recommendation and details on this forum back in 2021.

I wish I had the front bench seat. GM forces a $600+ option for buckets with a console in the Trail Boss with the convenience packages. There doesn't need to be shifter on the console at the very least, it's electronic anyway and just takes up space.

Not that I expect to use my jack, but how do you access it after you install one of these?

Installation instructions say to remove the jack and tool kit.  I guess you put it in the storage bin.

You remove the jack, install the tub, then the jack installs back in place so it's now "inside" the storage tub.

Same with the RC bin... looks like the bin secures on the stud for the jack and then the jack mounts inside. I'm not sure if the factory floor liner will need to be modified or not...I've found people saying it works just fine, or needs to be modified. I'll figure it out when it arrives.

The Husky Gearbox covers the jack and has to be removed by one wingnut to access the jack. The bag of jack tools is rite under the wingnut on the left side that secures the storage box.

I bought the DU-HA  storage bin and didn't have to trim the floor mats I my crewcab.

Well, nevermind on that. It arrived yesterday. I have the factory all-weather floor liner from GM, and it has a ~1" rigid lip on the back of it that outlines the rear floor where it meets the jack on the passenger side. Unless I want to cut up the floor liner to allow the box to sit flush and allow enough room for the seat to fold down, it's not going in.

 

I was hoping to just have to trim a corner or make a tiny little slice, not cutting out a 3"x12" section of the floor liner just to make the tub fit. I should have read more into the description, as way down in there it says it's not compatible with the all-weather floor liner (specifically from GM). Those who say it DOES work in the reviews clearly cut out a significant chunk of the liner. To get a different rear floor liner in there with a flat lip would be expensive because nobody allows you to buy just the rear (including Rough Country), so, it's going back.

 

The search goes on. The end result probably looks like a bag of some sort containing only what I need that stows under the seat. I was hoping for more contained/secure storage space in general, so I'll have to spend $225 on the GM under seat bin if I want to make it work. That's ridiculous, even more ridiculous than for RC's $119.95 for a piece of molded plastic.

The Husky Gearbox sits on top of the GM floor liner without any modification. The pricing is up there close to the GM. 

Seems to have good reviews, The link is for a double cab so if you may have to search for your year and model or go with the GM and guaranteed correct fit.

The GM one is the same way.  If you flip the rear liner over you can see the cut lines on it to use to modify.

 

That said, I have the GM one in mine.  I had trimmed the lip at first mainly, and it does fit.  But, it puts a slight twist in the bin and the lids sit mostly fine.  I likely will cut the mat down more.  I'll try and post a picture if I have time.

Same for mine too.  Fits perfectly after trimming!

      2027 GMC Sierra: Official Discussion

      Whoever greenlighted the work truck matte black front bumpers on every trim but the AT4X should be fired!  I was hoping that was an AI mistake, but just realized they were on every model of the 2027 Silverado too.     Some parts of the interior do look premium, but the Denali Ultimate dashboard looks like an afterthought.  At least they appear to have lost the microfiber the high end Silverado models showed, but the '27 High Country dash looks better than the Denali.

      Intermittent no-code issues on 2022.5+ V8 trucks — what did the shop fail to capture?

      By bluev8 · Posted

      New member here. I am researching a read-first event-recorder concept for late-model GM V8 trucks. This is not a sales post. There is no product link, price, preorder, or mailing list. I am trying to determine whether the underlying problem is real before building anything.   Has your truck ever had a brief problem such as: - rough running or a momentary misfire - an oil-pressure warning or unusual pressure event - reduced power or a brief stall - a U-code or lost-communication problem - a symptom that disappeared before the dealer or independent shop could reproduce it   If so, I would appreciate the following details: - year, model, engine, and mileage - what happened and under what conditions - whether a DTC and useful freeze-frame data were stored - whether the shop was able to reproduce it - what the eventual confirmed repair was, if known - what additional information would have helped the diagnosis   The concept being evaluated is a removable leave-in recorder that continuously retains a rolling window from before and after an event. It would not tune, reflash, clear codes, or change the vehicle calibration.   I am also not claiming that it could predict lifter failure or see every internal ECM variable.   The real question is whether continuous event history would add enough useful evidence beyond freeze frame, GDS2, and existing scan tools — or whether it would simply be another unnecessary gadget.   For owners and technicians, which problem would make something like this genuinely useful: 1. intermittent misfire or AFM/DFM-related behavior 2. oil-pressure events 3. lost communication or electrical faults 4. none of the above Please be blunt. Negative feedback is just as useful as positive feedback.

      No tears over the SLE and SLT trim levels disappearing but I kind of loathe the "Elevation" name. It's a truck--skip the elegance.   The slab-dashboard design is decidedly different. Almost has a Hummer flavor to it. "Professional Grade" seems to be leaning very white-collar, tech-driven these days moreso than blue-collar, functional design.   The Silverado would be my choice between the two new trucks. Pleased with the engine lineup in both. The GMC is a little "too much" for a truck, IMO, and the Denali borders on ridiculous - but I do know there are buyers for luxury trucks out there. It's just not my speed.

      - I like the outside but not as much as the Chevrolet.  They ICE'd the EV styling and it works, but I think exterior goes to Chevy on this one.     - SLE and SLT dead = Not.  Surprising.  Fits into the rest of the GMC lineup like this which (aside from Pro) matches the rest of the family.  Elevation, AT4, Denali.     - Interior.  Sophisticated Malaise era.  Why do I say Malaise?  Drawn with a ruler.  Rectangles everywhere.  Looks very premium though.
