T-Rail accessories to add on

[KevinRS]

I'd eventually like to see a listing of things that could be used with the T-rails. Storage options would be one of my first thoughts, bins, tool boxes or bags that latch on for storage behind the seats that's better than having stuff slide around on the floor.

THe lack of an included spare tire has me thinking. I'm not sold on the rear carrier, especially at the price. I'm thinking about designing a in-bed tire carrier that uses the t-rails (top or bottom) and the one of the d-ring mount points in the bed.

My vote is top mounted T-Rails. I’ve also added tie down loops to the stake pockets in the 3 trucks I’ve previously owned even though 2 of them had interior bed tie down loops. For hauling motorcycles or bicycles your strap angularity is better from the top of the rail. Also when you fill the bed with lading like furniture it can be a pain to access interior tie downs. I personally like the utilitarian look of older trucks that had tie down cleats on the exterior of the bed.(Ford Courier, Datsun, Ford Sportrac and others). Hope this helps!

I am planning on mounting some D rings to the bed floor where Slate recommends them on the mounting points for the roll bar and a set of tubular bed rails like I put on my GMC Canyon to the top of the bed sides.
