Also, i am thinking i will make the 2 smaller sliding drawers instead of one large one like you did. One to hold the Propane stove and paraphernalia. The other to hold camping cutlery and stuff. Basically a compact version of the old tailgate chuck box in my setup. Can also put folding legs beneath the drawers for support when extended.

Awesome. Been out camping a lot lately and I’m definitely gonna improve on things with building a storage space like this!!!

Looks Great, I just subscribed.

I got you from C boys

Here from cboys great production quality

Interesting build. Learnt a lot! Thanks! Question: I want to retain the possibility of using the 2nd row seats when not in camper mode. is it possible to make the platform in 2 parts? The rear part, comprising the portion behind the 2nd row will have the raised platform with storage. A hinged ply section extending from the rear storage box can fold over the seat back when its get folded down into camper mode. Making sense?

There should be a pretty good aftermarket for 4Runner modifications

The issue was probably the drawers were too wide and this resulting in them not going in right. You can see the enclosure bows as you push them in. I actually build these for a couple of cars and sell them, and I would suggest using some kind of cad software to draw it all up, make sure the dimensions are accurate, and then make sure you cut the wood to exactly those sizes. Something like SketchUp is free, or at the very least take the math paper (with the squares) to draw it all out, with the sizes. Your drawer slides appear to be 1/2 and not 3/8 so thats how much space you want there to be between the wood to accommodate them. They have a little give both way, so if you cut it like 1/64 or 1/16 too big or too small, its not a big deal. The accurate cuts is the most important thing tho after you have the design figured out.

Will it support your weight if you sit on it like a tail gate?

Hi- Curious if your dog is still able to stand up in the back? Looking to do something similar. -Wes

I came from cboys too

I want to do this for camping for me and my dog. Also, I dont like how the seats when folded down, block the rear ac. I'm in Phoenix , summers get hot here and my backseats are always down. I COULDN'T see how your rear seats looked in video.

Who came here from the cboys

I came from cboyz

the backseats of my hyundai kona electric doesn't fold down flat, I don't know the first thing about building. I'm looking for a build that can be folded when not in use

Do you plan on doing a cut list video?

C boys

Good job! Camera is too close to your content and moving quite fast.

I came from cboys

who else had to watch 10 minutes of commercials to watch this one video ? holy shit

I odered a an unbranded “dobbinsons” drawer system from china for 212$ shipped. Nothings as cheap as that.

I like Otis a lot. But the camera work at the very end of the video made it impossible for me to put together the whole build. I really needed to see clearly how it all fit together and the camerawork just did not work

Do you ride

Camera work makes me dizzy

ah seriously mate its not the sound its the video, i was getting a sore head looking at close ups of your carpet.

Work on your camera skills, you gave me a headache!

too heavy
