Nugget I think you have one of the nicest setups I have ever seen..If you were closer to California I would actually pay you to design the same system in my FJ... Great Job..

I may have to snatch up your design and pay a shop around here to replicate it.:sombrero:

Nugget: You should start making and selling those racks.. man that is a great design.. I don't think anyone makes them like that.. very nice.

Does anyone out there have a link for someone who makes these rack storage systems for 4x4s..?

Merci,

RB

Thanks guys. I had a lot of fun designing and building it.

I can not remember the brand of slides. i got them from a cabinet shop supplier. They are heavy duty rated to I think it was 250kgs and extend about 850mm. Very strong with steel ball bearing runners.

suecyde if you lived closer you could have the basis of this one as I am going to be rebuilding the carcass from aluminium tube to reduce the weight a bit...and for the fun...I bought a new mig welder which will weld aluminium and I need the practice!!

Thanks mate..it is the culmination of 40 years of camping plus seeing what others do etc.

This company is big in Aussie and makes excellent systems...just lack the "nugget" innovation...hahahahhaha

Nugget: Looks amazing :wings: Do you have any other pictures of the 50L water tank and pump setup? Did you make the tank yourself or purchase it?

This is what my rear cargo area looks like for 'light outings'. As in, just hitting a trail, no planned overnight stuff:

I made the box to fit storage boxes that I used to organize all my equipment. Although, some of the larger boxes just get strapped to the top side of the box.

I didn't like the idea of closing off any storage areas, so I built in a flap so we can still store things in the tub under the drawer.

Also note the retaining pin that is used to hold the drawer in or out.
