I'm looking for ideas on what to do with the back end of my SWB.
I plan to have a subwoofer and some sort of gear enclosure bolted to the floor but there are so many things to consider like eskies and other heavy camping stuff (water etc).
I want to keep the back seats in there too.
Please feel free to post pics and diagrams.

Thanks
Kris

These aren't photos taken specifically to show the system, but they might give you an idea of what it's like.
This one shows the system, and what it normally holds. Everything but the tent (and the driver

) goes behind the cargo barrier, in or alongside the storage system. Tent, tent's contents, alcohol, and other miscellaneous items travel in front of the cargo barrier, where the seats would normally be.
Close up of the storage system.
Another angle, primarily to prove that the fridge is on a slide.

Klevro's Pic:
Hey Klevro...any more pics/info for those roof bars? D Are they through-bolted or do they hook into something under the black gutters that go the length of the paj? I've been looking for an alternative to drilling my roof for a rack, but haven't seen anything around here...
Thanks,
Phil

this is just for phil pretty much,
sorry mate, i missed this post somewhere along the lines and was just looking back thorugh some posts.
the roofracks are the track style racks where the tracks are located on the roof and riveted there and the crossbars locate in the tracks and just use a grub screw to lock into place. The seem to work really well, and after the last trip im really happy with the set up, the only things that were up on the roof were two folding shairs, two foam mats, a sun shelter, our two bags and the 20L water that was half full. On the way home though moved the water container to the back, made a massive difference, note to self for next time
ill grab some pics for ya, dont think theyre the type youre after though...

Thanks for all your replies so far.
I haven't had the chance to do anything with the back yet expet for upgrade my sub to a 15" Earthquake which takes up almost the whole back area behind the seats.
Damn it sounds nice though.

Cheers, 25mmx25mm 2mm tubing was about $200, carpet was about $150, timber, I used MDF (because its light, gave it a treatment of aqua-sheild) 16mm $100, locks and levers about $70. Putting it in and it fits - Priceless
