Best way to secure an Engel 40L in a 2002 3.2 SWB

Mon Sep 22, 2014 10:27 am

I have a 40L Engel and need to secure it in my 3.2 SWB, without installing any boarding or sliders.

The rear seats have been removed.

Any ideas?

Curly,

Make a rectangular bracket wherein your Engel fits. Add two "horns" on the short sides so that you can secure your fridge. Use the seat mounting holes and bolts to attach your bracket to the Pajero. I have done it to my 5 door Pajero. My fridge bracket is in the position where the single seat used to be. I never remove it and when we need the fridge, I put it in the bracket and tie it down with turn buckles.

Curly,

My ability to place photos on this site is worst than my ability to make a million bucks before next weekend. I have tried but to date has not been successful.
