    Rod storage 1880

    Can you put two rods in one of the tubes in an 1880?

    Excellent. Thanks guys, looks like I will be able to section off the rod locker and carry a bunch of tackle in there also.

    Rod sock would be recommended so they dont get tangled up.

    Just bought some and will need more. Thinking about sectioning off the drivers side rear storage and using it as a cooler, we’ll see.

    The area in front of the drivers side console should be a cooler like the 1980. Its a wasted space in the 1880.

    I wouldn't say it's wasted space. It's the same size as the port side box. But I would give up part of that locker for a cooler in the same place as the 1980

    Thinking about taking a 1/2 or preferably a 3/4” acrylic panel and siliconing it in place. What divider material did you use for yours?

    Why not just use a cooler? Either soft or hard.
