African Outback drawers/cargo barrier for FJC

Cruiserhead · 04-21-2006, 02:30 PM

Sleeoffroad.com has this installed already! I dont know if it's a production item or one off but this is a big step in making the FJC really useable as a true wheeling rig.

Looks nice. Is it possible to install this system to 4Runner?

Looks sweet. Also wonder if it will work in a 4R, but I doubt it. Seems like the FJC guys get all the goodies pretty soon after release.

While the one I made for my truck isn't perfect, I couldn't imagine spending $1400 on a basic drawer system.

$1400

I'm with Joel on this. That's a lot of cash for a basic system. I'm sure it probably is worth the money for the excursion vehicle but it does look pretty basic. You'd need several mods to make it truely functional - eg more small drawer space above, a CO2 bottle accomodation etc.

It looks like that one has the fridge slide build in, but yes they are expnsive. One thing that is nice is the fact that it is Al, so it should weigh a lot less than plywood solutions.

I think for my needs a specific solution will be better, but if you have the money to spend it is a nice solution to have.
