Anyone have a trunk board?

I need the board that covers the spare tire, and a jack tool kit, if anyone can find, let me know. Mine got wet and warped badly, tools got all rusty.

I did that and it started sagging again within a couple weeks - prolly b/c i'm always loading crap back there, but at any rate, it didn't last very long =)

Try using MDF board instead.

I used drywall and just closed up the edges. Best $7 I ever spent at home depot.

Dry wall kinda melts when it gets wet, but WTF would i want my trunk wet in the first place?!

I used 1/4" plywood, after carrying my top toolbox (and about 250lb of other stuff) in my trunk for maybe 6 months it didn't so much as sag a bit. Found it around the house, cut out a handle and cut it to shape, transferred the tire supports over, sagging problem solved.

I came here to post this. The full size spare sits are pretty much the perfect height. No need for a board.
