all these cargo area mods are making me want to show mine lol. i decided to go with a two seater mod because i really dont give a crap about passenger comfort. I'm much happier with it this way and so are the dogs. My tool box and ratchet set fit nice behind the driver seat and my 33" spare sits nice. i layed down a tarp and then a packing blanket on top for the dogs to lay on. You never know when you'll need it.

Figured this fabrication might serve someone too.
I was lucky enough to get a jeep with a dog-guard installed.

As I teach survival skills, I have a lot of related tools floating about. I thought of a way of strapping them up with rubber.
As I had a lot of webbing lying around, I decided to make my own straps using Velcro. Here a partial view of the dog guard showing how I strapped things up:



A close-up of one of the straps undone holding the hatchet in place.
Each strap is actually two pieces of webbing with velcro. One closes over the dog-guard, and the second one closes over it + whatever it's holding. It means no rattles!



I also wanted to attach some other items directly to the vehicle. A mag-lite for instance. I used some rubber cut to fit the handle to prevent the mag-lite bouncing off the trim.



I did a similar thing to attach a fire-extinguisher...



It took me an hour or so to make the straps, and put it all together. I've been using them since a month, and so far, nothing has rattled, sagged or let go.

Here a larger view of the "boot" (As we call it here across the pond):



Yeah, that's a can of waste oil from a kitchen... A friend and I convert it into diesel using Methanol and lye! Runs wonderfully well (Quieter) and is a hell of a lot cheaper! (approx £0.30 instead of £1.49 per litre for pump-diesel)

Hope someone finds this info useful.
