Trying to figure out storage options for my 40. I don't want drawers or anything like that, because sometimes I fill that truck up to the max with stuff. I'm looking for something strong enough to keep my toolbox and snow chains from flying through it in the event of a rollover or something of that nature. I know Martin has something like that on his truck, any suggestions? Where to look?

Matt, I picked up a canvas tarp and an elastic cargo net from a military surplus shop. It works well holding camping gear, soft doors, shovels, straps, etc from flying out and bouncing around in the back, but probably wouldn't do in a roll. The tarp also keeps stuff dry with the top off.

I just picked up a jumbo ammo can that I am planning on drilling through and bolting to the floor or wheel well. This should work for holding tools, chains and anything too heavy for the cargo net.
