Rear storage solutions that don't take up floor space?
Hey guys, I wanted to see if anyone out there had any options/solutions for storing things up off the cargo floor? I'm not talking big items, just things like a first aid kit, umbrella, foldout chair. etc.? Either gear (climbing/surfing) or my dog are usually in the back of my 4Runner, so ideally I'd like to have these accessible but also off the ground. I remember seeing another member who mounted some of those molle (spelling?) pads/pouches to the back of his seats but I can't find the picture now.

I put small items in my side storage bin with the door I made, but for a chair or bigger you may need to make an internal ''shelf'' that hangs from the ceiling that you can slip things into with the hatch up. http://www.toyota-4runner.org/attach...1&d=1531143596

That might have been me. I’ve got the same problem as you, want to keep the floor space clear. I’ve attached several things to the back of the seats- molle panel, first aid kit, flashlight, and web pouches. For chair storage, I’ve found that the side compartment works perfect for my Helinox.

I like the idea of the rear window Molle storage but the pricing seems high IMHO.

There are a couple companies that make a panel that mounts on stand-offs that covers the rear windows. The panels have holes and slots you can tie and mount things to. I like the idea except for the loss of visibility - so I haven't bought any. Other members have installed a net just below the roof to hold lighter items. Those plus over the seatback pockets are about it.

It seems like hanging tools on a pegboard behind your and your family's heads at up to 80 mph to me. I mean, no one plans on getting in a wreck, but if you do, why add projectiles to the equation?
And yeah, the pricing seems high.

Thanks. Do you remember what the thread was titled? I tried to go back and find it before posting this but didn't have any luck.
