Why doesn’t anyone make a modular system for large toolboxes for bed?

    I have a Diamondback cover, so i usually open the back portion of the cover and drop stuff into the tote.

    Dumped the Tacoma, that's all it needed.
    TTI makes both of them, and the Ryobi Lynk system as well. And Hart’s system at Walmart.

    you can buy a Milwaukee extra large box that has no wheels or handle and then get the hand truck or the dolly to move them around on.

    I bought into Milwaukee years ago, and when the packout system came along it fit my needs. It has only gotten better since then, but there is also no perfect system for any one person.

    packout is a damn good system, but pay to play with anything team red.

    I have that XL box and can confirm it fits exactly under a BakFlip MX4 tonneau. I just got into Packouts for work in the fall and am working on creating a camping rig with them. To each their own though, you've got to find something that works for you. What's nice about the L and XL Packouts though is that you can make your own dividers or use the Milwaukee trays etc. inside of them.

    I saw somewhere on Etsy a kit that allows you to easily remove the handle on the wheeled Packouts so they fit under covers...
    Standby...

    When you have your dirt bike in there do you have to remove all of that...the boxes, divider etc?
    ....moto gear in the boxes too?


    Do you have a roll up tonneau?
    I’ve been wanting to get a cover but also don’t want to remove the hi-lift and tool mounts front the bed rails.

    That’s waaaay too high and a huge bit pita to load, and there’d be nowhere to tie it down.

    exactly! I've done that for grocery bags, cartons, fishing gear, kayak stuff, coolers, misbehaving wife, etc. But I do get OP's point; maybe something to look forward to in G4.

    I’d like something that fit precisely and modular as well. I need something that fits with the most amount of room. These Hart 27 gallon just fit under my tonneau. Added some ropes to pull ‘em.
