Back Seat Storage Using Unistruts and Pipe Stands
2018 Chevy Silverado 2500HD
Open service body

I got a new work truck and the back seat was useless.  I needed better storage.

Back Seat Storage Pipes

I removed the back seat and put 1/4-inch diamond plate down and a Unistrut on the back wall using the holes designed to hold the seatbelts.  I used pipe stands to support the front.

Back Seat Storage Platform Drivers Side

I put in a drawer unit like one that is used in a dorm. I also carry a printer.  The rest of the space I use for stackable boxes and my luggage.

Back Seat Storage Containers

I love it.  I change things up every once in a while trying to make it perfect.

Back Seat Storage Completed

It took me six hours to complete this modification and cost me $0 because all of the materials were laying around.  In my opinion, the skill level of this modification is medium.
