Under bed/inner fender storage?

The void between the composite bed and the bed sides has always made me wonder about hidden storage. I would love to see a system that capitalized on this space. Any fabricators out there?

 

Ive thought about putting a water tank behind there for spraying off sandy feed and swampy kayaks. But I think from a non-liquid storage aspect, its a weird shape thats hard to get into.

 

I’d be super happy with more water storage but the weight would be problematic.

 

Yeah, right now I use this thing from hart tools. Would be nice if it tucked way into the bedside though, so just the little control panel is showing.

 

i'm still in the planning stages, been wanting to do this for years, might be planning this for the next 20 years though...

some inspiration for you:






this was an official toyota concept SEMA build, tons of pics from all sorts of angles of this one. search: Toyota Tundra Ducati Desmosedici Transporter

 

I’ve seen a video of a hilux where the taillight folds down and it’s a long slide out drawer case for rifles. I’m sure you could find it on YouTube it’s really amazing how they did it.

I would love something like that for fishing rods, too bad my rods are mostly too long for my 6f bed.
