2009 Defender 110 Puma 2.4 SW Alpine White

Opinion about Front Runner Drawers

Hi all,

I'm interested in adding a drawing system to my 110.
I see that the Front Runner brand made a drawing system specifically made for the Puma.

Hi MD5

I use that exact drawer and it works real nice. When installed it sit perfectly "flush" with the "raised edges" of the wheel arches and forms a perfectly flat luggage area with masses of space!

Very sturdy and good quality.

I recommend it

Thanks for your feedback, really appreciated!

The top of the drawer is strong enough to load the fridge and a couple of 20 liter water can ?
Has a tendency to sag or flex ?

Any need to drill the chassis to fix the drawing frame or it use the existing hole of the foldable seat ?

Hi MD5

Yes, it is plenty strong enough.

You can drill new holes to secure but I will never do this. I fastened it by using the 2 "large" holes on each side where the two jump seats came out (the holes you accessed from below the wheel arch).

I drilled two holes through the top board of the drawer on each side corresponding with the existing holes as discussed above and used large washers and M8 bolts to fasten the deck to the car.

Another option is http://www.senseofadventure.biz/drawers

Will makes some excellent drawers, and will tailor to individual requirements.
