How To DIY Fold Flat Floor

[clifford15]

Got my RAM 3500 Crew Cab a month ago and wanted to make the rear passenger compartment a little more user friendly for a pet carrier. A fold flat floor seemed like a good solution and a nice DIY project. Seeing a few online I took the plunge and got it done for $75 and some labor. I had some black vinyl from a previous project and black latex paint that is not included in the final cost. All parts came from Home Depot. The drawing shows part numbers and store location for my near by store so I would not have to search for the parts.

Here are some photos and a JPG of the AutoCad drawing.

The drawing. I have a PDF file but can't put it on Photo Bucket. The little strip at the back will have a couple of sheet metal brackets to fasten to the rear seat bolts. Right now i put strips of hook Velcro to keep it from moving around.

Very nicely done! These things cost big bucks from the dealer and yours looks just as nice.

this is awesome! I wish there were more DIYs like this! Any way you can make the pictures bigger? Is their dimensions on the first one?

Looks damn good. The factory folded floor didn't come standard?
