Half cargo drawer system w/cooler mount

tisilverFJ · 05-01-2008, 03:29 AM

I made a half drawer to keep most of the cargo area free for loading camping gear,snowboards,bike, and so on. This way I wouldn't have to take the drawer system out to gain more room. Most of my recovery gear fit in a small Rubbermaid action packer. Then I just needed to mount an electric cooler on top. Still a work in progress. I was in a rush to have it working for a Moab trip.

Cheap electric cooler till I can afford an ARB. Added power and an on/off switch.

Ready for Moab.Still need to add a latch to keep drawer closed.

Looks good. How is it secured in the back? What are your plans for the finish? Carpet? Paint? Stain? Spar Varnish?

Have a great time in Moab. (My next door neighbors just came back... said it was an awesome trip!)

I removed the front tie down loop and replaced it with a screw from my dirtbike. Then I screwed the tie down loop to the back of the box. For now I just have 2 zip ties holding the back down. It doesn't move at all. I don't want to use carpet. Thinking about trying this spray on rubber coating that I've seen in auto parts stores or Line-X. If that doesn't work probably just paint it.

Already took 2 Moab trips with it. It's very nice having an electric cooler. No more buying ice.
