I wanted to share a few thoughts on some @Mountains2Metal products I recently picked up. A couple of these are pretty new, and I couldn’t find much info on them beforehand, so I figured this might help anyone else considering them.
Drop Down Attic (2-door)
I bought this right after it was released a few months ago. It’s one of those items I don’t use every single day, but that’s not really the point. It doesn’t hold a ton, but it uses that overhead space really efficiently. For me, it’s a good spot for things I don’t want to accidentally leave behind when I’m rearranging the rest of the cargo area. In winter, that’s been an emergency blanket and a couple of towel seat covers for after runs. As a bonus, it's basically invisible when closed unless you're looking up at it.
I haven’t mounted anything to the Molle cutouts yet, but I plan to. I did have some issues with the first two sets of brackets, but Nick at M2M helped troubleshoot and got me a solid set quickly. I kind of see that as part of being an early adopter of a new product.
Side Rear Molle Panels + Sliding Tailgate
I ordered these together and just got them last week. The side panels do exactly what they’re supposed to do. Install was straightforward, and I like that they add some protection to the cargo area trim, which I had already managed to scuff up.
The sliding tailgate was the one I was most excited about, and so far it’s been great. There always seemed to be more options for the 4-door, especially if you didn’t want to pull the rear seats, so it’s nice to see something that fits the 2-door well. Install was very simple, the included Allen bolts replace the eight factory cargo hook bolts, and that’s basically it. Easiest install of the bunch.
The tray itself isn’t huge, but that’s more about the available space than the design. I made an Imgur album with some photos of various measrements to help get a better sense of size. You can find that here. It’s sturdy enough to sit on when extended, which is a nice bonus. This is also going to help a lot in the summer when I’ve got a hitch-mounted hammock on. That sticks out pretty far, so loading the cargo area can be awkward. Being able to slide the tray out will make that a lot easier.
I was a little concerned about losing access to the under-floor storage, but you can still get to it by removing a couple of thumb screws and taking off the center section of the rear lip. Takes a minute or so, not a big deal.
Overall, I’ve been happy with everything I’ve gotten from M2M so far, and my customer service experience has been solid. Just wanted to pass along some real-world impressions in case it helps someone else.
