Now you will have a place for all of the lighter loose items that you need rapid access to….

Introducing the Springtail/MPAC FJ Cruiser Basket



The production units for sale are BLACK

Grey is only used in the prototypes and for better detail for photographs

 

What does it do?

The FJ Cruiser basket provides a place for you to stow the lighter loose items in your cargo area that formerly did not have a place. It also provides instant access to these items yet they are still secure enough for off roading because of the deep basket design.

Is there some other cool function?

If you place it on the passenger side of the FJ Cruiser, it will discretely cover the opening for the “hidden compartment”.  No one who is not intimately familiar with the FJ Cruiser will ever figure out that you have a secret “stash”.

Can I put it on either side of the cargo area?

Absolutely, we were careful to design it to provide ambidextrous storage for the FJ Cruiser

How hard is it to assemble and install?

Not at all, all you need is a 10mm socket/ratchet. We provide the Allen wrench.  Plan on 30 minutes to assemble and install the unit.

How much will it hold?

The capabilities of the basket have not been tested to full extremes yet, we figure that it will safely hold about 15 pounds. Perfect for tow straps, 1st aid kits or even jackets and blankets.

Dimensions:  17 inches  Wide x 5 1/4 inches Deep x  9 1/2 inches Tall

Please keep in mind that since there is no top on the basket to safely stow heavier items in secured bags or boxes.

Can I bolt a power tank to the basket?

No, that’s just crazy talk..…go sit in a corner until you come to your senses.

Seriously…define rapid access to the “hidden compartment”?

2 Black Knurled knobs provide the ability to install or remove the unit in a matter of a few turns of the knobs. No tools required after the initial installation. The mounts can also be removed with supplied Red knurled knobs.

Naaah.
This thing is so incredibly useful- it's a must have for your FJ. Solid construction, the easiest of installation. A great, great, production. This product got me hooked on Springtail Products.

Missing parts
Everything looks great, and as advertised, but I didnt have any of the 10mm nuts needed for assembly! It's a quick, inexpensive trip to hope depot, but still pretty annoying. Everything else seems great though, pieces well fabricated and sturdy. Looking forward to getting it installed - after a run to the hardware store.

Excellent accessory
I installed one on the driver side in my FJ. Works great, looks great. Keeps things very secure, despite no lid. I have asked for a second basket for christmas for the passenger side.

I didn't know how much I needed this
Love the product! I am lazy and was getting tired of climbing up to the roof box to get commonly used tools and hitch accessories, but you don't want that stuff rolling around, do you. So here's the solution! I also like how it makes the starboard side cubby into a real "secret compartment." Very sturdy, and easy to install.

Great but could improve
Bought this a few months ago and it is great to have this extra storage area in back. The basket now holds jumper cables, tire patch kits, air hose, work gloves, and a few tools like my hatchet and camp saw. Could be much better if it also had a section of panel to extend up to the top of the window. Would also be very, very helpful if it exactly fit the FJ space, rather than being a generic rectangular box.
