    Something I did on my old trailer is I installed drawers in the tool boxes, they were super handy. I have since been playing with the ide a for a diy kit that would allow you to install drawers into your tool boxes that would be designed so an arco mills bin would fit perfectly in them.

    The kit would install with no welding to the tool boxes required, it would all bolt togeather.

    I know when I had it was too handy being able to find things in the bottom of the box with out having to take out what ever was on top of it.

    I would like to know is this something you all would be intrested in?

    I will note that I have non for sale at this time, and have no plans to build any yet, I am just gaging intrest.

    you mean in the bolt on tool boxes and not the jockey box right?
    when flat bedding i used to put a couple shelves in the tool box as i found them to tall--more designed for tarps almost-- couple shelves at top 6 inches high for straps and corner caps --stuff like that--i hated when everything was jumbled into a big ball of crap

    On the set I built I built a drawer specifically for the chains with a bar to hang the hooks on, worked great, kept em clean and secure, didnt have to hear em slap the headache rack when I was empty.
