CrewMax storage resolution - Undercover Swing Case Install

I installed both swing cases and went through the realization that I can’t load full sheets of wood or drywall without removing one or folding one in. Then had to install my bedlights somewhere else so they wouldn’t be blocked by the cases. In the end I’d say they’re still worth it. I don’t have issues losing the tie downs because home depo straps have thin enough hooks that they’ll fit in the locking ring on the swing case brackets. i almost bought the Amazon knock-offs, part of me wishes I’d tried them still instead of spending the 400, but I’m sure quality would lack a bit.

 

This is my set up I actually relocated the strap hooks just above the swing cases and bolted them behind the cover bed rails. The Masonite works to slide items out easily.

 

Looks great!

 

I have two Undercover Swing Cases in my 2016 Tundra Double Cab. I had them in my previous 2010 Tundra and removed them before trading the 2010 for my current Tundra. I installed the Swing Cases into my 2016 after the trade and love them! I also have the Undercover hard plastic tonneau cover (and had one on the 2010 Tundra). I really like the set-up as the bed stays mostly dry in all kinds of weather and the Swing Cases keep everything stored there completely dry. The tonneau cover can be removed from the truck fairly easily when you have occasion to haul something too large to fit under it. Removal of the cover is a two-person task, but I have done it by myself a few times.

 

Yeah definitely a nice way to keep your things dry, out of view, and somewhat secure.

 

Anyone have a solution for replacing the tie down that gets removed?

 

I didn't want to cut my Line-X so I did the cut/modified bracket when I installed mine.

 

I have a 3/8 chain about 15 feet long and a bunch of tiedowns in mine. Still holding on. If you put rattling stuff in there you will hear it.

 

Anyone find a good locking rifle case mod that fits under a tonneau?? Love something secure for going to the range. Thanks!

 

What about under the back seat?

 

Would but I already did the three bin plastic storage. Wish I found that other one first that converts it to a long box.

 

Yes, and them some! I got one of these for a Christmas gift and after an easy install, i have some tools, a recovery rope, and booster cables in mine right now with some room to spare!
