What does everyone keep in their rear cargo panel?

Girl: Omg look at that extra "grab" handle!!!!!!!
Creepy dude: (under his breath but clearly heard on video) yeah I like "grab" handles too
Girl: these jumper cables have perfect clamps for stuff...!!!.!!!!
Creepy guy: let me show you where they go

I was thinking of showing her how big my 4Runner's driveshafts are, and how to grease them up really good.
 
Currently just a large tarp, so that I can lay it out in the rear when needing to transport something potentially messy like firewood
 
I currently have jumper cables, a folding shovel, and TP in mine...

Seeing how you all are utilizing this compartment is exactly why I enjoy this site.
 
Both the mechanic that inspected the vehicle and I thought the OE jack and tools were missing, but after seeing another member's post about the same concern I was happy to find everything tucked away under the PSR seat. Since I just got my 4Runner and haven't offloaded everything from my old XJ....

Previous owner left:
- Thule wrench and hitch pin w/lock
- Wiring harness (assuming OE)
- Hex key
- Uhaul Padlock
- Another hitch pin w/clip (assuming OE)
 
So far I have:

- small can of WD40
- wrenches and screwdrivers
- cleaning wipes
- window cleaning wipes (most useful stuff ever)
- a rag
- Big Larry work light

Planning to add a set of jumper cables at some point too.
 
Twin Arb

I mounted my Twin ARB compressor in the box, also keep the air hose in there with it.

Tow strap
Led flashlight
Multi tool
Electric tape
Small axe
Breaker bar with lug nut socket
Extra lug nut
And more little stuff
Sometimes hitch and pin
 
I have a '97, but I removed the black inner box so now I have a lot more room.

What I keep in there now:
jumper cables
hitch ball
work gloves
yellow safety vest
tool bag with variety of tools
towing chain
20ft, 10,000 lb tow strap with shakles
several sets of nitrile gloves
several bungie cords

TP

Flash light and Gerber multi-tool is readily available in the door pocket.

The twin looks good in there. Nice fit. Not easy to hard mount anything in that compartment and run all the wiring. I know. :thumb3:

Is that your switch on the bottom? Ignition on or off?

Picture of it with the box removed? :)
 
Currently in the back:

TRED pads
Air compressor
Spare d-shackle
ARB recovery strap
ARB tree saver
Harbor freight 6' strap( use it from shackle to shackle giving me a solid even point for pulling or getting pulled out)
WD-40
Mechanic paper towels
1/2" breaker bar
Those twistable rubber like zip ties or whatever you call it
Another very long rope
Shovel and axe
 
Radio

I used to keep a set of jumper cables, a wrench and some first aid stuff in there, but I recently cleaned it out so that I could install the body of my ham radio in there.

The rest of the space holds an air hose, inline regulator, and tire filling attachment.

First aid stuff and emergency stuff. I also keep my IMSHA-required fluorescent vest in there. Some of these "cubbys" are packed nice and neat!

It runs across to the other rear panel that I have a BlueSea 10port fuse box. Not hooked to Ign, as the Dual Batt should be going soon, just need to get rid of my ABS block and move the single ARB air compressor up to the wheel well so the second batt will drop right in.
