2020 Jeep Sport S (JL).

I picked IronMan4x4 twin side by side drawers (900mm).

I need a base plate to mount these babies onto. Goose Gear makes a plate for $640 but it is designed for *their* drawers which are 2x price. :)

Anyone have a blueprint/outline for making a plate out of plywood (which most folks at Moab showed me they did for their rig)?

I can figure out where to put the mount holes, was more wanting to see if anyone has the shape of the plate documented? Like a template?

What you could maybe do is use the 6 bolts that secure the tie downs and use 2x4s with L-brackets. Then screw plywood to the 2x4s and your drawers to the plywood. Easy, cheap.

I should have mentioned Goose has a 8-10 lead time. Otherwise I might as well get it. Figure I’d try this as a challenge.

Sorry for the delayed followup. The platform is installed, and I'm very happy with it.

I plan to mount my IronMan4x4 twin drawers onto it, and the fridge onto the twin drawers.


When I'm not camping or overlanding I plan to keep it in place, easy to secure things.
