Ok, put a 30 cal ammo can under the drivers seat today and it fit perfectly in the well under there. Thinking about fabricating a frame or sleeve for it to slide into out of angle. Fits nicely with the hinge to the rear, laying on its side

Think a 30 cal would fit really nicely under the back seat on the drivers side back seat as well. a Little slide in sleeve or frame made from angle, to position it for easy removal. Top/handle out. bottom toward rear.
Maybe add a tab or cable to padlock it to the frame

Got me thinking that a 50 cal ammo can might be the right size to hold a couple of bottles of Oil or ATF. Would be great to find a place under the hood, under the Jeep or behind the bumpers for one. I'm thinking on top of the slider supports.

Whatcha think?

50 cal also makes a nice center console / arm rest for CJ's and such

I have a few .50 cal boxes I use for tools in the garage...

I guess I need TWO sets of tools, one to keep in the Jeep

I'm gonna need SEVERAL 7.62 ammo cans in the Liberty when I'm done with my next project.

Just gotta figure out the specifics of the mounting system.

I keep my jumper cables in a 7.62mm ammo can (the 200 round variety). It fits snugly under the middle back seat between the metal supports. I also have a 48" high-lift jack under there... It takes some skill to get the cables in the ammo box, but it gets them out of the way and I rarely use them anyway. I almost always have my 85lb dog in the way back, so fitting my recovery/safety gear in the passenger compartment, and still having room for passengers, takes some creativity. Keep the ammo can ideas flowing! I'd love to see a mounted slide-out ammo can system under the front seats!
