Very cool!

 

i like how this turned out. makes me want to do this as well. i have some extra wood laying around. i might have to start measureing and seeing what i can use. but first thing is first. i need to get my 4X4 working again..

 

I like it...

I have been planning on building something similar for a while now, just haven't had the time or $$..

 

so can you still sit your back seat up???

 

I ditched this thing a while back. Anyway if you make one DONT do a top hatch like mine. Its too much of a pain. My current setup is an under the bed box along with my trusty old toolbox.

 

the problem with laying liquids on their side is that they WILL find a way of leaking out. That is why they are always stored upright. I learned my lesson when I stored a sealed never opened container of coolant on my trailer. Man was I hurting bad when I needed it and learned it was half full. That sure ruined my day and my wheeling trip.

 

thats actually really cool,clean,great idea

 

I keep hoping to see something like the boxes in the back of the Mini's in The Italian Job. I do a lot of construction work and would like a removable tool box so I dont always have to have all my stuff

 

Nothing fancy at the moment...



The mat is actually a truck bed mat that I cut to size. Was free from the junk yard, keeps things from sliding around or staining the carpet.

I've got my First Aid stuff stashed under the rear seat. In the cargo box I've got some basic tools, a funnel, tow strap, road flares, work gloves, and some other stuff.

So you're asking why I bothered to post this pic in the Fab section... it's because of my plans.

I'm going to look into one of those hitch mounted bike racks that swivel downward, and see if I can modify it to mount my spare tire.

Inside, I want to do VERY minor cutting and hacking as i want the interior to remain as damage free as possible... but I'm thinking some form of bracket mounting system for my Maglite, a small shovel, and an enclosed container for oil/coolant jugs and such.

I'm having a hard time deciding how to do this without just drilling a bunch of screws into everything.

 

Double post, mods please delete.

 

Since this pix my tire is on a tire swing and the drawer is alot more organized. Just shy of 120.00 to build, the heavy duty drawer slides were 40+ bucks.

 

My cargo area, work in progress

 

Good idea

 

Mostly packed for this weekends camping/ wheeling trip!
