Jeep Gladiator Rear Seat Delete: Overlanding Storage Upgrade

I undertake a low budget rear seat delete install project on my Jeep Gladiator. I start with a 2x4 plywood, a tool stack, and a couple odds and ends from the garage. Throughout the process, I stumble upon the unexpected and make a few design changes that enhance the functionality of my vehicle. The ultimate goal of this modification is to create an outstanding storage area perfect for epic overlanding adventures!

Looks badass man!! Good job

[@grubandgravel]

Thanks bud, I appreciate it.

[@terryrust5683]

i like your over head molle shelf, youve clearly spend a lot of brain power on your back seat delete, I like your innovation.

[@grubandgravel]

Hey, thanks. I appreciate it.

[@jimsdimideas5383]

Respect for how you think it through and setting it up for your daily use. Nicely done and the color match is a neat touch.

[@grubandgravel]

Thanks, I appreciate you checking it out. I have a couple of videos about how I ended up filling the cases and bags coming soon.

Good set up. I'm going to try to do a 60/20

[@grubandgravel]

Good luck with the build. Thanks for watching.

*I'm so glad my FJ has no carpet!*

[@grubandgravel]

Nice, I didn't know that. Jeep carpet is dog hair velcro.

[@onemansthought]

Nice! What rear molle rack/pnl is that? Great idea for sleeping stuff up there.....

[@grubandgravel]

Rear is jcr, and the attic is hooke road. I have an install vid of each a while back.

Do you have a link to that back seat mounted shelf aka your blanket holder?

Ya, it's for the jlu. The catch is unless you drill it only gets 1 bolt each side. It's still completely stable. I installed the brackets upside down to leave a loft space.

[@dominica2765]

Thank you I just watched your other video. I’m gonna do the same thing and I have the same back panel as you do and I’m doing a seat delete I like it upside down actually use it for a shelf🙏

[@5150Sheisse]

I want to do something like this but I can’t delete my seats. I need them part time for daughter and father in law.
Where did you get the molle panels?

[@grubandgravel]

I have vids on the molle installs. JCR offroad made the back window. A link for the overhead molle is in the description.
