Got sick n tired of the wasted space in the rear door compartment of my Prado and my ability to use this space in a handy manner, so I sent off a quick email to Sarah to see if she could do something to help my conundrum. A couple of measurements followed by some ‘brain storming’ ideas to and thro and the ‘Prado Organiser’ was developed.
My current ‘day to day’ things I like to carry round:
2 x ‘D’ Shackles for the trailer
1 x 7 Flat to 7 round pin plug adapter
1 x set of Staun Tire deflators and a tire gauge
2 x Ratchet Tie downs for quick use with the trailer/roof rack
4 x Eye bolts c/w ‘track nuts’ for tying things on the Rhino Platform
1 x Small pump for quick/minor airbag adjustment (saves me getting the compressor out)
1 x Length of Shock cord c/w Karabiners for general handy use securing loads in the back of the Prado
And there is still room for more and SWMBO wouldn’t look in there…..Hmmm?
The Organiser is sized to fit perfectly in the allocated slot and I ordered 4 removable Velcro dividers (I’m sure if you wanted more Sarah would be happy to sort you out with this). This makes for a flexible configuration that I can alter to accommodate different set ups for specific equipment on longer trips away.
The craftsmanship is as always (and I can attest to this as I’m starting build a collection of bags from Sarah) is second to none. Solidly stitched and made of canvas…..will probably outlast my lifetime. About a day or two after the final design it was on my door step. This particular unit is obviously sized for the Prado 150 although if you give Sarah your required measurements I’m sure she could manufacture one to your specific size and equipment requirements.
Thanks again Sarah for your help with this, I’m sure I’ll be back for something else soon.
