Does anybody know where i could get a under seat storage ( under the rear seat) for the my 01 1500 and how much you think one is worth? I have been looking for one forever for my truck.

 

I know Tuffy makes some nice storage boxes, kinda pricey though.

I have one made by BesTop that I purchased from Cabelas in the summer of 2007 that I highly recommend. It installed easily, looks great, and is holding up very well. I couldn't live without it now that I have it.

The bad news is that it doesn't appear that Cabelas sells them anymore, and they don't appear on the BesTop website either.

I googled around a bit (bestop dodge underseat storage), and it appears that there are quite a few sites still show them in their catalog, but it's anybodies guess if they are really in stock or not.

Here's a link to the instruction manual that is still on the BesTop website:

At least you can get an idea of what it looks like, and maybe do a search on the part number?

 

Thanks! I will have to check those out.

 

You didn't say under what seat.

 

I assume you're talking about the rear seat? My truck, being an ST, didn't come with any underseat storage under the rear seat. So I got one out of an SLT on eBay for very cheap. If you go that route, you need to either fab up your own mounting method, or make sure you get the seat hinges from the SLT seat that the box came from. It is a different hinge then what is on your truck, and has the mounting for the box on it. The box I bought came with the hinges too, so I replaced them on my seat, and the box installed perfectly.

I also bought cheap the underseat (under the middle front seat) cup holders for the rear passengers. It installed easily too.

 

Sorry! Yeah i ment the rear storage under the seat that came from the factory. Does anybody have a picture of the hinges?

 

You could try a junkyard, that way you can get the storage tray and the hinges in one place. I have an ST, and I've been thinking about doing this too, anything I put under the seat will slide around, especially with the vinyl floor.

 

I try to hit the junk yards when i see a new ram wrecked. I have been looking on ebay every other day to find one. hopefully i will get one one of these days. Thanks for all the help so far.
