Very innovative.
I wanted to secure or perhaps organize stuff in the back of SquareD so I have chosen the Bosch L-Boxx stackable system to utilize
I ordered: Two of the 4.5" deep L-Boxx1
One 6" deep L-Box 2
Tow 10" deep, L-Boxx 3
I figure I'll make one of the 10" deep units a spare parts container. The second 10" will be a tool box. The 6" deep one will be a medical kit, a 4.5" one filled with survival stuff, spare this and that's and the final 4.5" L-Boxx 1 container for a catch all
The plan will be to build a fixture to allow the stack to clip into the floor and serve as a prop for one corner of a fold down desk/bunk. The opposite end of the bunk/desk thing will rest on the fuel tank.
I already have a selection of tools sitting here from Northern to start to fill the tool box, so we'll start to kit all of that out PDQ

Wonder how well that'd work in the back of XJ.

It would work in the back of anything I'd imagine.
But the cool thing is your stuff is organized into a nearly indestructible box that you can separate and go with. You can grab the first aid kit and bandage someone up, then click it back in place, then grab the "Survival kit-box" and pull out your fire starter and get some heat going, then pull out the tool box and fix the leaky rad hose on the truck.

There a link to them? And, how to you secure them to the vehicle? I'd rather not drill any extra holes in XJ.

I like how they fit together, that is great. I have a question- do you worry about having to "unclick" all three to get to the bottom one or the middle one etc.? I like that you are integrating it into a support structure for the table but still not sure of "taking it apart" when you want to access it. Just curious, not trying to be a PITA in any way.
Could they be put on end so you could grab one and unclick it without disturbing the others? (I am not sure how the mounting mechanism works or if they could be done vertically with the mounting hardware underneath them attaching to the side/back section of the case? thereby having the handle up)

They click into the next unit at the base, flat side down. I do not know of any base unit other than a roller caddy, so I plan to fab one up once I see how it all works
I don't care about inconvenience. Security and being able to quickly locate things is what's important to me.

Very cool. Never seen those. Linky thingy??

I like this idea. I may have to go to HD or Lowes or some place close to check these out and touch them.
this could be used in conjunction with this combo............http://www.globalindustrial.com/p/material-handling/hand-trucks-dollies/hand-trucks-folding/best-value-folding-hand-cart-150-lb-capacity?infoParam.campaignId=T9F&gclid=COnXnY_cuMYCFQuMaQod0PgCWg

Look around there, plenty of options. You're gonna like these things!
I checked...Guess I clicked the button once more than I thought. I'm getting 3 of the 4.5"ers, 1 of the 6" ones and 2 of the 10 inch ones

Nater,
There is a caddy already made for these boxes. Your box actually latches onto the caddy!

Hmmm. Dangit Don, now there's something else for me to buy.
