Third Row Seat Delete/Removal on 2013 or 2014 XLT

[JamaicaJoe]

I found a 2013 I am interested in. However I have no need for third row and would like to use the space underneath the floor. Is this possible? Pictures??

There is a build thread on this forum of just that.
Finished it off with a storage box. W/pics.
Really did a nice job.

Do you have a link? I find one in 4th gen, not third.

There is an 07 that deleted the 2nd and 3rd row to make an Overlander.
I think their page is Aspen Adventures. Its a super cool rig.

Why don't you work out a deal with @GreyAngel123 ? He has a 2014 with the factory SSV 3rd row storage and wants to replace it with the 3rd row seat. In his case the manual 3rd row seat would be the easiest / cleanest install route for him.

@JamaicaJoe Part number on my box is 7L14-78111D08-A. This doesn't match exactly the part number you mentioned but I feel that all boxes are the same for this generation of truck. The box uses the 4 front bolt holes that the seats slid into as mounting brackets. Super easy swap at the end of the day.

Let me look into that. I think what I need is just something to wall off the jack compartment, like the hinged seat filler panel, carved up. I need the underfloor space going forward, all I can get, so that box may be consuming what space I need.

I do this to my 2012. I built a storage box out of wood and covered it with carpet. Even put gas struts on the lid. I never thought to take any pictures during the process but I’ll try to get some shots of the finished product in the next few days a post them here.

If you can get a chance, I would love to see the photos. Thanks!
