YOHO 4Runner Drawer Storage System

Price on the bed frame is fantastic!!!

Fyi- Those turn buckles used on the front of the box suck. They loosen up as you drive over a bumpy road and squeak like crazy. They will drive you insane.

Velcro straps would work better.


Question - what's the theory on the bed frame?
Set it up at your campsite for sleeping then take it apart in the morning?

Will it survive off roading while setup?
 
Thank you!!

So far the turnbuckles are ok as long as they have some load on them.

Right now my 4Runner has had the bed setup in it for a week, haha. It makes 0 sounds when you have the foam and bedding on it, like not a sound.

If you are loading up the 4Runner with passengers you can keep it dismantled until you get to your camping spot. I usually set mine up prior because its either just me or one other person camping.

its not going anywhere, so no issues off road.

Thanks for the comment!

Hi and thanks for the comment.
Yes, you will need to carry it to your 4Runner and put it in the back yourself, no magic here. If that is DIY, I wish I was living your life :)

I edited this response since you decided to play nice by editing your original statement, and I will do the same.

Thats an AWESOME design.... I only wish or suggestion is, to make the sides shorter, to make the finished product just a little more headroom. Im a short guy and did a sleeping platform in my other 4runner, it was right at the same height when done with the mattress and I would bump my head waking up, it was hard to actually sit up in the bed...

When you come up with a 4th gen 4runner design, I may have to jump on it.

Major Props to you
:first:

I agree with you about maximizing headroom... although in this case, the seat bottoms also determine a "minimum height" unless you plan to exclude them from the system.

I've slept in my 4runner "on the floor", but in order to do that I have to remove the seat bottoms. I'd love a raised option for some underbed storage... but the damn seat bottoms are pretty tall! ha

yes, I have seriously considered removing the back seats and build the cargo box / sleeping platform from there (single guy) so no need for the rear seats for me. lol

Had the same thoughts, sadly the back seats DO get used occasionally, so for now it's been keeping and removing them as needed...
 
I like it, you're hitting the middle ground between DIY and the insanely pricey stuff.
There are a lot peeps that don't have the skills, tools or time, or want to drop a grand or more. Keep up the good work.

Where are you guys located?
