    Somewhere I've seen a set of pole holders that are perfect for that. I'll hunt around for a link.

    Been trying to find them for a while they may be all sold out since I got 2 of 5 left... Here is something similar but smaller. I'll keep looking

    This case is a good cheaper option as opposed to pelican cases. Although you're not going to get new shiny with a warranty. I like beat up stuff - adds character

    $_1.jpg

    http://m.ebay.ca/itm/Authentic-Mili...ts-NO-TOOLS-/121771351264?nav=WATCHING_ACTIVE

    This would be great for fishing rods I assume (although not sure if it's long enough for most once broken down)
    $_1.jpg

    http://m.ebay.ca/itm/Waterproof-Ste...or-Preppers-/321694489709?nav=WATCHING_ACTIVE

    Ok! I found them. Not sure why they weren't coming up on my purchase history. I smashed my phone last week and just got back on with my spare phone. Anyhow here is the link to what I purchased, as well as links to other similar military medical chests of varying sizes. I strongly recommend purchasing these as opposed to other containers as these will stand up to anything and never let you down. I'm not disappointed in any way with my purchase of these chests

    XXL military medical chest:

    http://m.ebay.ca/itm/MILITARY-MEDIC...-BUGOUT-BOX-SURVIVAL-/301936186288?nav=SEARCH

    Same chest, newer condition, cheaper:

    Medium military medical chest:
    $_1.jpg

    http://m.ebay.ca/itm/Aluminum-Milit...vival-HD-Storage-Box-/162346393158?nav=SEARCH

    Not sure if this is useful for anyone:
    $_1.jpg
    http://m.ebay.ca/itm/Military-Medical-Aluminum-Chest-47-5-X-14-5-X-11-/171923836484?nav=SEARCH

    I still can't find the legs... I'll update if/when I find them

    I know why I can't find them now... They are listed as no longer available, have been relisted on eBay, but the link remains as sold out... Here's the link

    http://m.ebay.com.sg/itm/381745838601

    The leg set is made by BRENNER. Check with your local military surplus, maybe they can order them for you?

    I like these. You can load them up and don't get too heavy. I had a DeWalt job box too like others posted. But they get so damn heavy when loaded. (I bolted a toolbox wooden top to it too, to make a worktop for cooking and what not)

    These four totes are weather tight and have been in numerous monsoons with no leaks.
    4 for $99 on Amazon prime. They JUST happen to match my truck. What are the odds.

    I've seen black ones at Academy with green handles and branded as Remington. $40.

    And what's on top of the rack? Is that a tent? Definitely not as large as others I've seen.

    This is what I've recently finished setting up (wiring isn't setup in the photo):

    [​IMG]

    Driver's side: 1000W power inverter, Milwaukee M12/M18 battery charger, Milwaukee M12 impact gun, Viair 400P-RV air compressor, some 30-odd tent stakes w/ hex bolt heads (impact driver makes easy work of them).
    Passenger's side: water quick-disconnect + power button on the face, with the interior holding water pump, tons of recovery gear, two 12V sockets, two USB ports in another socket.

    Details in build thread (link in sig).

    Looks like we have a garage with the same vehicles in it. You have good taste!

    '75 2002! I think a lot of classic euro car guys have tacos as well. It's nice having a modern reliable utilitous vehicle with AC in the stable.
    I fabricated the rack myself. Finished it Friday before a wheeling trip. It's not 100% complete. I wanted something that went just above the totes to hold them in place and carry my tent cot and other equipment. It's loosely based on the rack RCI has. I just used some angle and channel iron I had at my shop. It's all structural iron so way overkill and heavy. But it was free. Except for 6-7 hours of my time. I'm no expert at welding or steel work, so I really had to take my time so it didn't look like shite. Came out well. You could park the Tacoma on top of it if you wanted...
