SCrew under seat storage options

So I've read the Husky is better than the Ford unit, also seen the Du-Ha unit.

Looking for one that is not totally 100% flush up to seat. With baby seat I may need to slip my hand in and grab something. Anyone have the Ford unit? How close is it.

Looks like pro-bin is snug. I seen a husky last wknd and it allowed a little room.

Any other options.

I ordered the Ford unit. Absolute garbage. Hard plastic, narrow, and not wide at all, wouldn't run the full length of the back seat. Looks like it could barely hold the snow brush. USELESS! The picture even shown dividers and it came with none.

THEN it has to be screwed to the floor. WTF, screwed to the FLOOR! How am I going to remove it when I have large cargo to go back there!?!

I sent it back without hesitation!

I now use duffle bags and it works great. I can put all my pull straps, cargo straps, blanket protectors and tools under the seat. BUT now I just got my Bedrug Bedliner installed as well as my Extang Solid Fold Tonneau Cover so the tools, pull straps, and cargo straps went into the bed. I use one duffle back under the back seat for emergency blankets, rain suites, and the such.

I got the DUHA and it may be tight (as far as your purposes are concerned) it was easy to install (and uninstall) and has plenty of room for a lot of stuff.



These are the two compartments under the 60 part of the 60/40 split, there is another one under the 40 part.

I like the Du-Ha and while I don't like the price, I may bite anyway. I have an FX4 with that super big off road floor mat in the back. Is there a smaller version of the mat that doesn't go all the way under the seat? If I get the Du-Ha, I don't want to have to take it out to remove the mat.

I bought two small Rubbermaid storage containers that fit perfectly. They are dark blue and actual Rubbermaid brand. They fit snug under the seat, but fully accessible at all times. Price? $4.50 each.

Now come on...if I showed pictures you should show pictures of the Rubbermaids and how they look. That is an inexpensive solution...do you find that they sometimes slide out from under the seat when you brake?

Did you have to relocate the jack? My 11 has it under the 60% seat vs the 40% like my 07 had?

Did you get the Rubbermaid containers at a Wal-Mart? Model or style numbers?

I bought them at Menards. Yes, I wish they were black, but they hide well. No, they don't slide at all. I'll look for model numbers.

Like the big Ford emblem on the front of your truck?
