Increasing the Jeep XJ Storage :Gullwing Window Aluminium Storage Boxes
I'm in between trips and the aluminium storage boxes for the gullwing windows have come in. I haven't got stuts for the system yet but the boxes should allow me to store my recovery gear and whatever else I choose in the back window compartment, saving more space inside.
I made the boxes by taking out the original window, tracing the shape of them, the adding four 100mm deep sides to each side much like a cardboard box. The local fabricators cut and bent them and that was basically it. If your going to do something like this it would probabaly be easier to get these boxes made in 3mm aluminium and bolting the hinges directly to the inside of the box rather then having them as sperate pieces.
See you on the next camp out and thanks for watching.
