Storage solution for 4Runner.

I’m headed off to chase the SCORE Baja 1000 and have the same old problem. WHERE DOES ALL THIS STUFF GO? For those of you on here that use your 4runners to go exploring you’ll understand the problem of organizing and securing all the ‘just-in-case’ things you need on a big trip like running down the Baja peninsula. Securing items becomes even more important when your offroading at speed because there is nothing worse than having things flying throughout the cab when your bombing down a whooped out road. Finding a pit box that handle this has been a hard find.

Gear I always carry:

SAFTY: backboard, neck brace, Hostyle trauma kit & first-aid
RECOVERY: jack, ARB tree-saver and tow strap, tire plug kit, road flares, lug wrench/breaker-bar and of course a large spare.
SPARE PARTS: axle, air filter, specific nuts/bolts, u-joints ect.
FLUIDS: water, Lucas Oil ATF, motor-oil, gear-oil, lubricant spray, brake-cleaner, radiator stop-leak, shock oil, and fixa flat
OTHER: hand-tools, BFH, duc-tape and bailing twine (just cuz).
CREATURE COMFORT: jacket, blanket, cooler, tent, sleeping bags and trip luggage.

After searching the internet I finally found a box http://www.tuffyproducts.com/p-127-0...ty-drawer.aspx that fits the FUNrunner and allows me to store all the essentials needed for long excursions. I’ve had Tuffy Security products www.tuffyproducts.com before in my ol’ rockcrawler and know they are build to take offroad abuse. The beauty of this Tuffy drawer box is it allows me to get to tools/recovery-gear fast without having to unpack all the creature comfort things such as luggage.



The BFGoodrich spare, aluminum jack, and breaker-bar all find a home on the CBI Fabrication bumper www.cbioffroadfab.com. Soft luggage such as a tent and sleeping bags go up top with the backboard on the Baja Rack roofrack www.bajarack.com.


Tuffy Security, CBI Fabrication and Baja Rack produce high quality products that can really take the punishment of Baja while making our Runners more usable.

The color has grown on me, but I hate it when I'm yarding for parts the same color. Know what I mean.
