Toolbox Built Into Side Panels Of Pickup PICKUPS Accessories 22-3-25 The side panels of pickup beds can be turned into roomy storage compartments that leave the bed completely open, says Innovative Truck Storage, Carson City, Nevada.
The conversion requires replacing the en-tire pickup box. Both 6 1/2 and 8-ft. beds fit all 1/2, 3/4, and 1-ton pickups at an installed cost of less than $3,000. Locking side panels flip up to provide 20 cu. ft. of storage on the 6 1/2-ft. box and 27 cu. ft. on the 8-ft. box. The panels simply swing outward and upward with assistance from gas shock lifts.
"Customers can tailor the storage compartment to their specific needs," says Scott Clare. "Not only do you get ample lockable storage compartments on each side of the bed, but you don't lose any space in the bed. We offer a variety of pull-out shelves and bins that allow you to customize the toolbox to your needs."
Clare says the expense of the add-on box is partially offset by eliminating the need for a conventional toolbox in the box.
