Hi,
I have a SR5 hilux and I am after ideas for a storage box in the back for my 40l engel.
I don't have or want a canopy on the back but I do have a draw system that raises the floor to the top of the wheel guard's. I also have alloy ladder racks and roof basket that would prevent some ideas I have seen where the box lid open's from the top. I was thinking it would be better to put the opening at the tailgate end of the ute with a fridge slide that pulls out and down. I welcome advice on the best brands or options.
I guess to some it up, I want to come up with a fairly common (draw and fridge) canopy set up. Except I don't want the canopy. I do however want to keep the fridge out of the weather dust and water.
Thanks

Our fridge works perfectly in an ordinary, everyday toolbox. I lock it in when we're on the move & lift the lid when we stop.
The toolbox has a seal around the inside of the lid & there is space for air movement around the fridge vents.
It has traveled near & far & we have never had a problem with it.
Some will advise you to cut vents into the toolbox, DON'T DO IT! It just lets dust in.
I hear what you're saying about a canopy lol!
