Front Runner cargo slide in a 2dr JK

[crusaderJK]

Maybe some of you have been wondering if it's doable.
The cargo slide is actually made for the Unlimited, but with some minor modification -and the backseat removed- it can be mounted in a 2dr.

Only thing you'll have to do is cut a part of the front right mounting bracket to clear the backseat mounts, and drill 2 holes into the floor.

The cut-out.


The holes I had to drill. The slide will be bolted to the tub through these holes and the factory cargo tie-downs in the rear of the cargo area.
The left hole is easily accessible from under the Jeep. The right hole sits over the rear end of the gas tank, but you still reach it with a wrench.


If you remove the plastic liner in the back you can still access the jack.

This is very helpful. I have the Front Runner roof rack and would like to be able to add an interior rack at some point without going full custom. My fab skills and equipment are, uh, limited…but I figure I can knock out a slot like you've shown. May look like a beaver did it though.

Good to know; thanks! Another mod to consider...

Your skills will increase with every mod you make, and your toolbox will grow as well.

On top of the slide I've built a rack. It sits on the frame which rests in place while the bottom slides out.
