Fitting with the theme of the work I did to the storage areas on the boat today, we also took a break for lunch and finished up the install of a roof cargo box on the 4Runner!  I bought a knock-off Pelican style waterproof box off Amazon, we drilled some holes and bolted it to the roof rack!  We also reinstalled our traction pads, shovel, and the base plate for the fuel can holder.  We’re ready to roll!

What all did I put in there? Lets see if I can remember: jumper cables, tow strap first aid kit, tire patch kit, tire inflator, folding shovel, tie down straps, water purification kit, emergency supplies, dehydrated food, rope, tool kit… and I’m sure I missed a few things. 😉

Everything looks cooler with shit bolted to the roof! 🙂

I even cleaned out the back cargo area and we reinstalled the water tank to prep for our (hopefully) upcoming desert road trip!

We use that cooler every day! it’s great!

The 4Runner is on its way to being the perfect offroad exploration rig! 🙂
