Looking for any ideas for tool/spare parts storage in my 90 K5 blazer. Looking for something that can fit behind seat and keep them secure in event of accident. Currently theyre in milk crates strapped down but gotta be a better way. Some of the things I like to carry are spare axle shafts front (D60) inner and outer, hubs, u-joints (1350) rear axle shafts (9.5" 14bolt). Impacts, 1/4", 3/8", 1/2", drill, cordless ratchets, grinder and various wheels, spare bolts and washers, wiring kit, fuel pump, fuel line, air comppressor, tire repair kit. Recovery gear, winch extension, snatch block, 2 20' straps 1 30' strap. Clevis's soft shackles, tools from 1/4"-1/2" drive sockets, wrenches to 1 1/2" screw drivers, pry bars and hammers. Im a field mechanic by trade and have separation issues from my tools

Sounds like you need a good tool box bolted to the floor and the organize stuff inside it.
I like tool rolls, everything is compartmentalized and being a roll keeps the tool quiet.

I used to use a toolbox with little drawers, stored behind the seat. It was a pain to lift out and actually using the drawers inside was hard. I got tired of hearing wrenches clank all day, so I moved to a couple of tool bags. The socket set is in a blow-molded case, so it's quiet and the other tools are mostly in roll-ups.
