Enduro Utility Bed

[jackus]

I really have been impressed so far with this rig. I installed the factory utility bed but I am unhappy with how it mounts to the chassis. I wanted to ask you guys if anyone has run into or heard of a flip your lid style mod for this utility bed to secure it to the frame of the truck?

Here are some pictures of my rig if anyone is interested. [IMG]

I can't answer your question, but welcome to the site! Great looking truck. I love the wheels.

For those who don't have the utility bed...how does it currently attach out of the package?

The utility bed mounts with 8 screws and plates to the back of the cab of the body and uses the original rear body posts. The rear cage that I built is using the rear most screw hole of the bumper mount like an Axial swivel. Very durable that way.

Some nice terrain you have there too...looks like a great spot to wheel!

The pictures were taken at Fort Richardson here in Jacksboro TX. It is a really great place to wheel with tons of rocks. All situated next to a beautiful creek. Any Texans on here?

Austin...

Pretty far from me then. I am wanting to try and find some people closer to my area that are into the hobby. Surely there are some Dallas-Ft worth guys on here. If you are ever up this way give me a shout.

Got it! I see it now. I was confused on where the attachment point was on the bed portion. I can see the posts sticking up in a few pictures.

I feel like you'd almost have to fashion some brackets to get a more sturdy mount or a hinge system.

I am really hoping someone on here that has the utility bed will come up with a 3D printed solution for this. I would certainly be willing to pay for it. I would think others would as well.

I'll admit that at first I didn't mind it mounting using the stock body posts. Now that I've made the new version which uses the pivot I find it quite handy. Now I need to find some of the frame rail body post mounts to get rid of the posts through the hood is next on the list!

[jackus]

So you are using the factory utility bed? If so post some pictures of what you did for the mount in the rear please.

I built this out of some brake tubing. Tried to keep it simple and yet have it hinge and still be removable.

[jackus]

That looks great. I will have to do something similar. I guess that’s the front bumper mount you are using in the rear?
