If I’m spending someone else’s money this would be a great setup. His boxes are much taller then yours though. I’ve also seen guys take rectangle square tube to make pockets for each chain.
I used 4” pvc drainage pipe for my chains in my headache rack. Works great with my ratchet binders stored above on a rack.cke, Ruthless, Speed_Drums and 5 others Thank this. -
1- The chains are NOT going to stay in the rubber tubs. They're going to bounce around and move to whatever location they want to be in and then they're going to keep bouncing until your box breaks. Every time you go to use them, you'll try to figure out why 2 chains are in 1 tub, and who the heck tied them in knots.
2- The binders are going to make their mission to hook to the chains that are bouncing around. They'll successfully find a place to secure to your door latches to other heavy objects, making opening your box next to impossible. That is, unless they decide to just break your latches and kick all your stuff out while going through a construction zone with jersey barriers on both sides. (Not me, but a co-worker)
I only carry 2 things in my trailer boxes now. Pipe stakes and tarps, and I'm still looking for a better place to put the pipe stakes...cke Thanks this. -
