How to Install DECKED Truck Bed Storage System 

Great observation. I thought the same thing.

There are normally additional instructions that are separate just for the L-Braces when you receive the kit. These were not shown in the video because they are optional braces, but recommended. If you're having problems give us or Decked a call for help with installation!

@@Realtruck so those brackets and the additional drilling is optional?

Thanks 👍

You can reach the two factory points in the rear by the tailgate, I use them for ratchet straps all the time, I'm not sure about other makes, but my F-150 has the four tie downs on the side walls that sit nicely above the decked box, giving me six possible tie down points in total. The decked system synergizes really well with Fords in my experience.

Agree, especially since the whole thing comes in a big box on a pallet. They could have easily made the two halves and shipped them that way. The product is very strong and solid though.

It’s due to their very efficient and effective shipping system. The way things fit together in the box to avoid damage necessitated the drawer handle assembly. Regardless, that part was super easy and only took a couple minutes.

Hey Hector, it depends on the type of liner. If you have a Spray On liner, that will still work fine. For Drop In or BedRug liners, it would have to be removed. Hope that helps!

Finally!! I've been reading and reafing comments. That info should be in the inspections at the beginning.

Nothing.. but I don't see it moving once it's installed .

If you have a drop-in liner there might be some modifications you'd have to make such as trimming/cutting.

I installed mine over a full sized BED RUG. Tight but works fine

No

Barbaro Matos yes you can

Because they wouldn't let the rear drawer wheels fit past. The ammo can wheels stop the drawer coming out .

No, they only make these for real trucks.

You can buy a core trax kit which adds 2 rails with tie downs to the top of the decked system. You can find the kit on their website

Steve Koz: Per the manufacturer DECKED - The 2014 F150 and prior Ford models in addition to the current Super Duty models with the factory step have a bump on the driver’s side of the open tailgate, which will interfere with the opening of the DECKED drawer on that side. The 2015 F150 models have the improved step and do not have a bump on the tailgate. The tailgate step will not impact the installation or use of your DECKED system. However, DECKED will interfere with the handle because that part causes the tailgate to have a big bump in it that the DECKED drawers will hit. There are three possibilities for a successful installation: 1) If you already have a spray-in liner, your DECKED may reside high enough so that the drawer clears the handle. 2) You can purchase cable extenders to offset the ramp angle of your tailgate. We have not tested this product, but here are some more details so you can see if this will work for your needs. Hope this helps! Rider Tailgate Accessories has developed an innovative new truck accessory called the Tailgate Lowering Links which, when added to the existing tailgate support cables on a truck, allow the tailgate to lay flat. For example, the tailgate on a 2013 Ford Super Duty is about 1.5 inches higher than the bed. With the Rider Tailgate accessory, model FD1, the Links allow the tailgate to lay flat or about 1.5 inches lower than the level of the bed. Rider Tailgate Links are constructed to allow the tailgate to be lowered without the tailgate contacting the bumper. The amount of tailgate drop varies from 3 to 5.25 inches depending on the truck. This patented product is the only product on the market that lets consumers lower, and use, their tailgate in a position that is lower than the conventional open position. Rider Tailgate Lowering Links are engineered for strength and performance. To learn more about this innovative patented product or to see what other truck models they fit, call at 801-678-1405 or visit their website at RIDERTAILGATE.COM. 3)You can easily remove the handle and purchase the following Ford part(s) to cover up the opening where the handle resides: F150 - AL3Z 99000A38 EB. Retail - $64.29 F250 - AC3Z 99000A38 AA. Retail - $64.29 F150 Platinum: If you have the Platinum version (prior to 2015 - non aluminum) of the F150 and the tailgate step, using the tailgate extenders can result in the Platinum plate hitting the bumper and marring the plate. Removing the handle may be a better option for this application.

I did.

@@eseEVIL408 I was thinking the same thing
