Under Seat Storage

[Chilow]

Does anybody know if any companies offer an under seat storage option? I’ve included a picture as an example.

Because of the way the seats fold, I don't think anything like that would be possible. I don't believe there is any empty space under the seats (at least not that I remember in mine.)

Don't think so and if someone does have a product link they can post I'd seriously look at a purchase as well.
Under the driver's side rear seat if you pull back the carpet there is a plate and access panel for the fuel pump wiring harness for the gas tank, so once the seats are up there isn't a lot of room for storage compartments under there based on the design.

No, they dont

there is a little bit of room under them if you lift them forward, not enough for an organizer like in the photo though

This, I normally keep a jacket under one side and a tarp under the other. Not much more room than that.

Shoulda bought a Tacoma for under seat storage. I utilized mine when I had a Tacoma. Miss it on the 4R!

I sure wish we had the storage of a Tacoma. There's virtually nothing in the 4Runner. Toyota even took away the door in the right rear compartment that the 4th gens had.

Anyone stuff jumper cables or a hitch into the jack storage compartment? Looks like some room with a tray at the bottom to hold anything from falling out.

The rear cargo area of my Xterra had a hatch that was nearly the full size of the back floor. It wasn't very deep, but it was big enough to carry a tow strap, small shovel, tire patch kit, and jumper cables. All stuff I always keep in the car and hope I never need.

I miss it badly... Now I keep all that stuff in a heavy-duty bag and it's in the way constantly, or I leave it in the garage... I've needed jumper cables exactly once since I switched to the 4Runner, and I had unloaded the back to prep for a trip and hadn't put them back in yet...

Storage, in a 4Runner? :rofl:

That's a good one!

I was able to get this tow strap in the bag to fit under the drivers side rear seat (with mild persuasion)

I stuff a lot of stuff between the rear seats and the start of my fall down third row. I have a tow hitch and a tire air compressor and poncho and first aid kit all wadded up down there.

I’ve been on the hunt for summer padded packs or modules of some kind that could fit under the front seats just to have more control over loose items. It’s tough though with how tight everything is for sure

That photo the OP posted is maddening because WeatherTech has it show up in Google searches as available and then you go to their site and of course not available for our vehicle so it’s just Clickbait

How to have more storage, from a thread from the old days with many of the original (now gone) mod folks.

Rear Wheel Well Storage?

Pull the seats and build a platform and storage boxes.

Try some zippered travel packing cubes. Like these from REI. You can stash small and flexible items in them and squash it under the seats.

Wow that would be awesome

 

[jawkdna]

I use velcro backed pouches under the rear seats to house my tire repair kit, gloves, tools and tons of stuff...

Blue Ridge Overland Gear makes my favorites available here!

looks like a cool idea
