Lower Frunk Storage Flip-Up Lid - DIY Solution

[Itaintfastenough]

Height wise I think you could fit the standard depth organizers on top of the drawers in there.

I‘m looking at doing the same setup with packout drawers, I picked up a set from Home Depot a couple days ago. Right now I’m using a medium packout vertically against the back wall so I can also fit a couple of rifle cases stacked in front of it when needed. I can see you have the M12 inflator hiding on the left side. I have the mobile charger and a M18 inflator in the lower compartment, I had to remove the hose/accessory rack from the back to make it fit.

I’m just now switching from Rigid pro 2.0 to Milwaukee packout, a switch I resisted for a long time. The design of the drawers was what prompted the switch, Rigid’s drawers are overly tall for the usable height and their bars to lock each side are annoying. I think my favorite packout piece sofar is the deep organizer. I used one for my mobile buffing pads and product, I can fit 7” pads flat and 5” pads on end. Next favorite is the ammo can, I can fit a circular saw or track saw in one.

That’s one keen eye you have…and there’s only a fraction of it visible!

Got tired of having to remove Milwaukee PackOut Box every time I needed to get something out of lower storage. Removing it wasn’t too bad, but was a pain putting it back, almost always required Tool box removal

Very nice! That's a quick afternoon project to keep in mind (other than the drying time on the Herculiner). Oh, and I see that Turbo 200 Cap hiding in there...

I own rental properties and there isn't a single matching cap in any one of my 14 A/C units. I have the entire suite of the Turbo Caps, they're awesome.

I hear ya…They are indeed…They’ve bailed me out several times when I was out of a needed rating…my service van (2020 Transit Connect) carries the full range of caps from 3mfd up to 80mfd… I use my Lightning on new change outs/installs, so I only carry a bare minimum of parts that may be needed… hence the Turbos… All tools of my trade occupy the rear floor in a storage retainer.Not a single rattle can be heard!

I have a similar milwaukee box in the front. I also have my milwaukee hand tool bag.

For anyone thinking about cutting their OEM panel, I ended up doing it with a circular saw and it cut clean and easy. It definitely sags a little bit in the front center if you put weight on it but the sides are still stiff. I didn't add a hinge or anything to hold it but I think that would definitely help.

That’s awesome!! I wanted to… I really did, but when I found out how much it costs, I just couldn’t. Went with engineered wood instead… If you decide to go with the piano hinge, Home Depot has them in black and long enough, whereas Lowes has them in black but all are too short. Regards, Woody
