Default Storage box

Here are the pictures and how i did the storage box for the back of my Ruby jeep.

Baught box from oly4x4.com for 250.00 + tax. The box is 30x36x14. Got it home and removed back seat and stored it, then put box in back and took measurments for slots in bottom and up side. Used a right angle grinder with metal blade and cut the slots then test fitted and adjusted slots then cleaned edges. After putting box in place and found that the plastic shims under the back seat front hoops worked perfectly, used 3 per side and hammered them in then packed it full of stuff.

Here are pictures.









I applogize if this in the wrong area,
Kat

Very nice. Great security and would be faily easy to remove if you needed the back seat.

Looks great! I like the tub of zip ties. I would swear that those things are some of the most useful things to have around.

I like the zip ties too. Can't ever have enough zip ties, 100mph tape (aka duct tape), 550 cord, and extra wire with you. and don't forget the BFH I'm sure there is one in the tool box there. You also get for the E-Tool.
