Dimensions of 2002 Explorer with folding seats down?

[yaajer]

Does anyone have this information on-hand? Wondering if anyone's taken approximate dimensions of the trunk space with the rear folding seats down?

I'm looking to transport a fish tank and stand and curious if it will fit. Tank is 6x2x2 in feet...stand is probably a little longer and taller.

I might be ass'd out.

I can take the measurements when i got home from work in a few hours if you dont have a response by then.....

you should be fine, if not it will be close. I can fit a 6x4 sheet of plywood in the back of my 02 with the seats down and the wood sitting on the wheel wells, and there's still a couple inches to spare at the back.

I've fit 4 x 8 plywood in mine, fits if I keep the hatch open and down on the wood. 8ft is pushing it for length - 4 ft wide is a little close at the rear wheel well panels, but It will fit.

It's amazing what you can make fit in there ;p

I fit a large Sofa in mine last Monday with the legs taken off. The hatch was within 2 inches of closing and the glass had to be left open but it fit and make the 5 mile trip back home. I dont think your fish take will be a problem at all. The Sofa was at least 6.5 feet long. I'm 6' tall and can lay down on it.
