Cargo cover for 2 door

[james1414d]

Figured I'd share this. I had a floor cover for a Subaru Ascent that I thought would make a good cargo cover. It came out well. I did have to trim the sides for the roll bar.

I like it. What you figure the load capacity of it is? Is that just particle board or something more substantial?

It is fairly heavy duty as it was a cargo floor panel. It looked like a 1/4 inch or so plastic panel sandwiched with thin sheets of steel when I was trimming it.

Sounds good. If it ever does sag due to weight on top - it should be easy enough to fab up a cross member under the middle side-to-side. Aluminum square tubing or even 2x4’s for that matter.

I’m like you. Just love to repurpose old stuff laying around to give it new usefulness (and save some $$$)

Absolutely! Im a Subaru technician which is how I wound up with this thing. I doubt it will ever sag to be honest. Pretty stout.

are there any options for sale that would be similar to that? i would like to have something to keep the back a little more "secure" when I leave the Bronco without the top on

Not that I could find. I think I saw a cage type one, but it was cost prohibitive in my opnion
