Piece of angle on each side screwed into the body panel with nut inserts from hardware store, then zip tied to home made cargo divider

The angle came with the divider I cut up, mind you the shelf flexes, its only for light stuff, blankets,pillows , tp , paper towels imo

There is a company that sells it , I copied from a pic, this is lighter then the screen in a police car divider as I tried that first

Built some lights for bumper since the factory ones are busted , 2" led on thin aluminum plate, plus my homemade stone guards to keep some fool from using the light cutouts as a foothold

Was it the right front? My right front has always pulled since I bought the truck. New calipers, rotors, no difference. Figured it was in the ABS Modulator block and was going to take it apart to see what's doing what.

Btw I ended up using the valvoline dot 3-4 synthitic hope it is OK since I flushed the entire system again

Only dot 4 I could find was a metal can quart with German writing at pep boys and it was expensive like double the valvoline

I've been using that Valvoline for years with no problems.
