What is this?



I need some info on what this storage device is. I couldn't find any part #'s or maker on it.

What is it?
Is it a factory item?
Can it be removed (with out a torch!) because I'd like to replace it with a (Husky Liners Underseat Storage?

Thanks for your time any expertise!

Grace & Peace, Jim

The answers to all your questions are right in front of you

a) fold out storage platform
b) yes
c) the bolt heads are a really good clue to the answer on this one.

Another member posted answers to your questions, but I thought I'd chime in. I kind of like the flat platform that was previously offered in the super duties. If I had a choice, I'd take the flat load floor from the F150. That is the single thing I miss most about my half ton. I could set up office in the back seat.. in fact, I did while running scores for a shooting competition. Had a table, printer, computer and all.

Thanks Redrkt, that's what I thought. Did all the 2005-2007 Crew Cabs come with this or did some come with a 'storage bin' instead? I ran a search and it seems that later models come with storage bins instead but it is interchangeable with this platform.

All these guys are pulling your leg. It's a mobile shoe rack. Your wife must have asked the dealer to install it. From the little-known, "Super Duty She" accessory catalog.

Shoe rack? Ppp It's a folding Cosmetic shelf. The Shoe rack
mounts on the front bumper so she can air dry any shoe polish.

I thought that was the mobile grill option, part of the NFL tailgate package. The option located the catalytic converters under the coregated metal plates so one could grill burgers, hot dogs, steaks and chicken wings. It was designed for football tailgate parties, but didn't prove to be a popular option.

If your truck has a kitchen fan built into the sun roof, you probablly have that option.

Rifle barrel & scope storage for your multiple removable barrels. The Ted Nugent option. Need one for bows too. Should a made the channels larger say about beer can size. Then run the AC freon tubes through it. Now theres an option.

I have the under seat storage, but really miss the big flat floor from my F150.
