Wing kit vs. Custom-Cut 4x4 Drawers
If you’re looking to maximise your 4x4 ute’s storage space, you may want to consider installing a ute drawer system.
However, when it comes to drawer systems, there are a lot of options available to you.
The biggest question you will have to ask yourself is whether to opt for a DIY wing kit or getting a drawer system custom cut to your specific vehicle.
Let’s compare the two options.
What is a wing kit?
A wing kit is a do-it-yourself 4x4 drawer solution. Wing kits let you store tools, camping gear, equipment and more.
Generally, wing kits are sold in a single size that will fit most dual cab ute trays. Wing kits can be installed at home and often come with all hardware required for installation – all you need are some tools and a bit of knowhow.
However, these systems are usually carpeted, so are usually best suited for utes with canopies and may not come with any warranty.
What is a custom cut 4x4 drawer system?
Unlike a wing kit, which is one size fits all, a custom cut drawer kit is – unsurprisingly – custom cut to your specific vehicle.
DECKED, for example, makes ute drawer systems custom cut to most popular utes, including:
