Found this Jim https://plus.google.com/photos/10616...90292654336924 might give Steve an idea

Some of those photos remind me of the mods that Terranosaurus did on his SWB for Macmillan Challenge. He posted loads of photos.

Here is a deck I did earlier, not all that pretty but functional
I screwed 4x2 [100x50] to the floor using the bolt holes for the two rows of seats
notched out the timber to take old roof rack bars as bearers and cut two hatches to give access to rarely used small stuff
I carry a lot of tool boxes for my worktop jobs

I have lots more pics of stages if anyone wants to see, I used OSB 18mm thick for the deck boards, this took the best part of a 8x4 or 1220x2440
My trolley jack is in a suitcase under the front section, lots deeper than the rear.

some good ideas there mate,got me thinking now.
problem is I still use the 3rd row of seats so maybe a lift out tray just for when I go camping might be on the cards.i also take the dogs so cant be too tall either.

Maybe a swing out spare wheel holder mod is in the pipe line.
I'm sure I have seen these on some 4x4s but can't remember which ones.

Toyota surf has a swing out spare wheel carrier that could maybe be modified.
