I need a new Tool Box for the 4by, But need some advice on keeping it organised, or is it true what the Missus says, Men are hidious at keeping anything organised!......LOL.
The problem is things on top of things, What you want in a hurry is always on the bottom!!, so usually a big reef gets you there,but just makes a big porridge of whats in there..lol. Maybe i need it set up like a service vehicle, but its a allrounder type ute, tray full, or everythings out of it.
Cheers Axle

Easy. Chuck out everything you have not needed in the last 6 months.
I got rid of the missus that way.

have a close look at
mine ......... first thing is to mount them sidways so the door/lid opens out from the side then you stop loading things on top of each other...
Mine open out and down and turn into a kind of work bench...

Amen to that....me too.....but I keep a small "army surplus" canvas tool bag with a few quick items ready and easy to get to.
Pliers, 3x screwdivers,pointy knose pliers, side cutters,small 8" shifter,
stanley knife, insulation tape. ( this has habit of growing and I cull it often...lol)
But my main tool kit is buried deep but I don't access it often, and if i have to, it's a major unpack!!
