We decided to start mocking up the design using cardboard. The overall design was governed by the fact that the rear doors did not open a full 90 degrees and I wanted to be able to remove the system and put the seats back in if necessary.
I also had to actually sit down and decide what and where I wanted to put things.
I started out by making a list of what we would carry back there and where we wanted to put things.
I decided tha on the passenger side we could have two drawers, one for the cook stove that we do most of our cooking and the second drawer would be for incidentals.
On the driver side I wanted one big drawer to hold all my tools and recovery gear.
The space on top would be for longer/larger items like ourClam screen shelter and chairs..
Here are some pictures of the progress..
Pieces that will hopefully work!
