Been looking at a bunch of these setups over at Expedition Portal, and am starting to consider building something for my LR3. Has anyone built a sleeping platform for the LR3 that also contains some storage drawers for gear? I see plenty of them in the back of Land Cruisers, etc., but it's hard to judge how one might fit in an LR3 based on that (lower roofline, etc.).
I'm thinking about a modular system that would include 3 pieces: one for just the cargo area with the seats up, then 2 more that can be placed over the folded flat rear seats in order to create a sleeping platform (or be left out, if necessary). It would also include a slide for my 43qt refrigerator, drawers for storage and possibly a water system with 12v pump. I'm most concerned with the height of the drawers - I want them the be low enough that my dogs can still ride comfortably in the back on top of the them, but tall enough to afford some decent gear storage.
Any advice/pictures/experiences on this would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Paul
