Nice toolbox to jeep in the xj
Looking for a nice toolbox that will fit in the back of my xj. Anyone have anything that they keep back there? Right now I have my tools in milk crates and it's kinda ghetto.

I have a black craftsman rally toolbox with four drawers to hold all my mechanic tools, and a metal box to hold all other big stuff and fluids.

I was thinking about drilling a set of holes into the body and using wing nuts through a tool box to be able to secure it down but still make it removeable. Then use some velcro or bungies to keep it from flipping open in case I go headlong into a telephone pole or a tourist on I-70.

I've got an old military foot locker (freebie) that works awesome...if I didn't have it I'd be using a plastic one (have about 10 of them from Iraq deployment).
But as stated above make sure you have a way to secure it. I went with a rachet strap around the box and through the spare. Connects to the upper support mounts for the backseat. Its easy to reach and realllly easy to move box in and out along with the spare.
