BF Goodrich AT KO 265/75/16 on Wheelers 16x8 black steel wheels. ARB front bumper mounted with KC Day Lighter 100 watt halogen lights and 2" back-up firestik antenna. Cobra ltd 29 CB Radio with PA speaker mounted under the hood. In the bed: 2 bike Thule rack, spare tire, 5 gal. Gas tank, and my tool box all covered by a softopper shell. Main 3" Firestik is mount at the rear. She sits pretty, and runs like a champ.
    I'm a little late but:

    -full bug out bag(BOB)/72 hr pack
    (Equipped with plenty of fun gadgets, notably: hatchet, solar powered radio, binoculars, a slew of knives, first aid kit, para cord, and a huge magnifying glass)
    -24" campers axe
    -sealable box with extra boots and knee pads (for work)
    -extra cb antenna
    -sun-flector
    - lastly, a lock bar fr my steering wheel

    All of this is behind my back seats except for the bug out bag and the sealable box so it looks pretty clean. I still need to put together a roadside kit in the near future, but it shouldn't be too hard to put it together

    Do you have pictures of what it looks like with those bins removed? You've got me thinking now about possibly removing mine.

    Any pics? I hadn't considered removing all the plastic stuff.

    I carry my compressor and tools in the big compartment and my tomahawk, range finding binoculars, flashlights, field guides and notebooks in the smaller one.

    I'll get a couple of pics after work today. But it's fairly easy to just take them out. You have to remove the rear seat backs, and flip the seat bottoms forward (or just remove them) Should only be a couple of bolts and that's it.

    Then remove a few screws along the center of the bins. Slowly prying up on the middle seam/ There's screws and white plastic retaining clips all along the edges and middle. I believe the larger 60% side is overlapping the smaller side. I ended up breaking a couple of the plastic clips off, but it's not a big deal if you don't plan on putting it back in there.

    The end result is one large cavity with the back wall being just sheet metal. If you're looking to make some sort of shelf or storage divider, it would have to be custom. With the seats back in place, I can easily fit a LARGE socket set, large first aid kit, couple of blankets, jacket, etc. It does slide around a bit, but as long as you pack it right, it shouldn't make any noise.
