Enthusiast I
Currently building my 2005 GMC Sierra 1500 SLE z71 4x4 Overland Rig. OB# 4345
Spend half my time in the Mountains and Desert. Some of the best trails are right in my backyard. Been building my GMC for the last 6 months and it has been coming along. There are too many great rigs to mention that I give credit for the ideas. Enjoy! Any comments or questions, please feel free to ask. Carpe Diem. Cheers!
2005 GMC Sierra 1500 4x4 z71 Specs:

Installed so far:
1. Softopper Folding Roof Top

Name that Mountain Pass....?
2. KB Voodoo Utility Bed Rack
* Width: 67.5”
* Length: 45.5”

3. Decked drawers
* Review: Love the organizational aspect of the Decked. It’s a plus that it is compatible with the Bed Slide. Before, my truck bed space was not being utilized and was disorganized to the MAX!! Now it’s easy to grab tools, hunting and fishing equipment etc. The list goes on with what you can store and add to your Decked. I added interior lighting to the drawers which makes grabbing anything at night very easy. Would recommend 4.5/5 to anybody.
