1st gen rear cargo deck lift and organizing drawers

I am looking around and cant find anything about a lifted deck with drawers underneath. I have seen them for sale and I myself will be starting a design mock up here in the next few weeks just wondered if there was some input out there on this topic??? If not I guess I better take pictures through out the build and get it up here. I was thinking about raising the deck to top of wheel well with an all metal frame. Placing wood over the frame and carpeting it. This allows for two slide out drawers and a few stash points. The only thing I am having trouble with is when you fold the rear seats down the deck will be taller then the seats. So far my only thought to solve this would be to make the bottom of the seats disconnect so you can place them on top of the other half?? well I would love to see someones who is done. Thanks for the time

Those are pretty cool. for some reason when I typed that in for a search I didnt come up with any of those. I will be taking full pictures when I do mine and I hope it will turn out the way I want it too. I am new to welding and figured this would be a good project as I can cover up all my ugly welds haha. I did like the flip over extension that will be added in thank you for your time in showing me those!!

I couldn't remember exactly what terms to use in the search. It took me a couple tries as well. Looking forward to seeing what you come up with.
