How do you access the rear door handle?

Because the box is so close to the door I sewed up a webbing door pull that bolts to the door release lever and extends out the side of the box. A quick pull on the webbing opens the door.

Nice. Bonus of having the box there…thieves can’t use the license plate panel vulnerability.

Locker
Today I finished the install on a project that I have been working on since I did my 4x4 conversion about three years ago…Dash switch for shift on the fly hubs and rear e-locker. It’s not a 100% perfect match, but is fully functional.

I was able to take a picture I have wanted for a while and yes the clear creek reservoir is a great paddle.
And my cousin picked up a 7.3 2000 van with only 50k and has a pop top so stopped by with van envy.

thanks,

Graphics are awesome... and the 8020 sure seems the way to go. Nice work.

Drivers side is a 10' stick that is bolted to rivnuts on the inside wall skin at ~24" above floor... passenger is the same just shorter due to the barn doors.
There is a single-slot 80-20 / t-slot rail that would work better when attached to the wall - https://www.mcmaster.com/t-slotted-f...file-one-slot/
Plan to use corrugated plastic as the covering... may use slides... may use hinges... may be fixed sides with access from the top???
