Hey all. 2500 incoming soon. Will be used mainly to pull TT. Bed will have tonneau cover, but I’m looking for solutions to secure items in the bed to avoid them sliding around. It’ll be things like camping chairs, portable BBQ, rug, etc. Was interested in the mopar bed divider but it appears to be only for RamBox trucks. Any accessories folks would reco for that purpose?

You're doing it wrong
The bed has slots stamped in just cut a couple 2x8s and use the slots

I think it would go nicely under that top you ordered... stir pot...

With the price of lumber right now a good set of 2x8s is probably more than the Decked system, so might as well just go for it.

Since I sold my toolbox in favor of a topper, I’m using medium-large husky totes for my recovery gear and tools etc.
they’re cheap, tough and waterproof and have clear lids. They don’t slide around on my bet mat, either.

I've had many pickups over the years, and a decent quality rubber mat will really help keep things in place.
RamBox trucks have the slots. I don't have RamBox unfortunately.
Pretty cool stuff, thanks. Likely more than I need. I'm really just looking for anything to keep things from sliding around. A divider would be great but the one Ram makes is only for RamBox. Open to any other suggestions.

I am pretty sure all trucks from all manufacturers have slots for them. I know I've had GM and Ford trucks from the 80s that had them.

Really then i guess ill go pull all the 2x8s out of my long box......
I use a small child to get anything that slid beyond my reach while unloading. She's already costing me an arm and a leg so might as well get some work in return. As an added bonus you can use them in your house to reach things under a bed or table. Make sure to follow maintenance schedules or it will develop a whining sound.
lol
Sorry. First time pick up owner here. Went back and inspected my box a bit more. Do you mean this? See photo. Doesn't seem very deep. Will hold a 2x8 in place?View attachment 15491

Lumber too expensive to use for that purpose now LOL
