Got wood...?

Going to crack on with the rear storage in the back of my 90.

First part of the plan is to put wooden board across the wheel arches and a second shelf above this so i can have two rows of of wolf boxes independent of each other.

I know diddly squat about wood.

Whats the best wood to use? Things can get moist in the back (ooo er misses) so don't want something that will take on too much water. Also needs to be strong enough to hold the weight above.

We use flooring ply in our 110s and have rotating vents in the roof so that it don't go moldy

I did look at that. What sort of thickness and what kind of weight can it take. Do a variety of outdoor sports so the back is always chock a block with heavy kit

We run ours at max weight so well loaded. I'll take a piccie tomorrow

What I'd use. If it's good enough to plyline builders Transit's it'll be good enough for you want chap.

Yeah, it is

Lashings of boat varnish when fitted.

Not sure how big a wolf box is or indeed how many you can get across the back but It wont have to be one inch ply.
The load will be vertical and half inch ply will be fine on its edge as long as it is fitted well. Exterior grade will be fine for a trattor.

This is how I would do it, keeping spans to one box wide will negate the need for heavy timber.

Very nicely designed mate.

Think I'm going to keep it simple and have one large flat platform across the wheel arches - space underneith neetly houses two wolf boxes, tool box and a couple of other things. Then a second large platform about level with the bottom of the window. Would mock up a pic but not as handy as you with the old design stuff
