I made a platform for the rear seat of the truck. The newer Fords have a storage contanier under the rear seat that is lockable but when you raise the seat the storage is wide open and no real way to put anything there. So I made this platform and it is lockable by the original Ford locks.
Here is the driver side of the platform

Here is the passenger side of the platform. It has a 2" foam pad for our dog to lie on.

I can still open the platform over the storage compartments and have tools in this one.

This is what I'm using on the driver side for storage. I have another one that stacks on top of this one. I put in some rings that are mounted to the platform so I can tie down the storage container and anything else I want to store here.

This one is from the dogs point of view with the storage contanier where she well get to ride.

My wife also made covers for the back on the seats and the console to keep them from getting scratched up from items stored in the back. We also put in a seat protector to cover the back seat to prevent damage to it also. This is the gray cover you see in the pictures.
I have not had time to finish off the frame and doubt that I well before we leave. I covered the top of the platforms with a felt material. The platforms are hinged and seperate in the same spots that the seat does making 2 sections to the platforms
This is is prep for our trip to Alaska this year.
