New rear shelf in my 86

[annoyingrob]

I'm not sure how much stuff you guys usually throw on that little shelf in the back of the truck, but with my tool boxes, and a few jugs of fluid, there's a fair amount of weight up there. So much in fact, that my factory shelf collapsed in the center. I decided that rather than repair it, I would just build a new one. Took me an hour and a half from start to finish. It's made out of 3/4" MDF, and is extremely sturdy.

The next step is going to be covering it with some carpet next time I can grab some from the junk yard. Let's see this one try to collapse on me!

hey that's looking nice and tidy. Love the Mastercraft metal tool box with slides.

Yeah, it was a christmas present from my girlfriend. It was mis-priced, and ended up costing her like 7 bucks.

I have some pictures of the inside somewhere, I cut out foam pieces with shapes of all the wrenches so they wouldn't move around.

Haha. That's funny because my buddy from Canmore just got one too and it was about that same price. The SKU must be missing the 8 in 78.
