Figured I would start a thread to document my build.
This week I mocked up my bed to accommodate the side mount toolbox I got
Used 3/4” birch plywood as the bed, and 2x12 for the sides and tailgate. Kicking back and forth ideas now, most likely am going to do a diy spray in bed liner on all the wood, and debating wether to use the Honda rack clamps, or to just drill through the rack and bolt to it. Also considering using Simpson strong tie gussets angle brackets to strengthen my set up- credit for idea of this setup to Appalachian mountain riders on YouTube.
