DIY: Ammo Can Storage

I was researching ammo cans after seeing this DIY & came across this:

 

KY jelly

 

Super Lube works great.

 

Awesome mod. Thanks to this post. Now I have a place for straps

 

I like this mod. Thinking I'm going to have to do this to mine or maybe something like it.. the wheels are spinning, it might mean trouble LOL

 

Thanks I love this idea. I just bought a crewmax and with it's limited storage this will work great.

 

If I didnt just buy a camper shell, this would be on mine.

 

I want to do this but afraid it will draw attention and maybe thieves will try and steal the whole thing and in doing so ruin my bed rail track.

@T-Rex266 Did you ever get it figured out??

 

wow, this is awsome, i have 2 20mm ammo cans i didnt know what to do with. This is def worth trying!

 

I really dig the eye bolt for the lock. Never would have thought of that and I’m going to have to do something along those lines for my locking boxes

 

Genius, sheer genius! Anyone know what hardware InfernoToyo is using? I read there were some slight mods that need to be made when addressing the lid issue.

 

Those that have done this, have you had any issues over time with the can cracking from vibrations? I drive lots of washboard gravel. I’m thinking as pong as there isn’t much weight in the can it should survive okay?

 

I wouldn’t think so either, but the way they are attached is likely putting a lot of vibrational stress in the upper 1/3 of the can, with weight in the bottom.

 

Roger. Just eyeballing this setup, are there any clearance issues with a topper? Doesn’t look like there would be.

 

Gracias

 

Anyone accomplished this mod with a bed cap ??

 

Check out the tundra unistrut thread there’s some guys who made a bracket to attach campers and bed covers to unistrut and that would alllow you too also install the ammo can!
