As this forum is full of creative types, I figured I'd start a thread about tool storage inside of our little rigs.
Currently, I have two nice quality canvas tool bags that I tend to toss into the rig whenever I hit the road or trail. This works, however I'm looking for ways to lock things down a bit more both for trips, and for my everyday errand running when I take the Bronco out. I am not necessarily looking for "bank vault" levels of security, but I would like to keep valuables out of sight and/or at least more difficult for someone to just grab and walk away with when I am parked around town.
I am seeing lots of very expensive options geared towards the Jeep crowd, most of which are very nice, but also way beyond anything that I need.
My usual road/trail setup includes an ARB fridge along with two small action packer totes, plus the usual tent, chair, pad, bag, clothes etc. I have slimmed down my gear a bit, but I tend to still pack heavy. Now that I have a dog again, I need to account for a place for him to ride again as well.
I am not a huge fan of the boxes that mount right inside of the tailgate since that hinders my ability to slide stuff into and out of the bed, so I know that my options are probably limited.
I figure with the NCB braintrust there are probably some unique, out of the box ideas that I've not yet considered.
Under-hood storage is basically out of the question; my engine bay is quite cramped!
Thanks in advance.
