who uses this

rather than this

Are there other companies with better/more economical products to consider?

Just how reliable are these items?

Bestop makes an underseat security drawer for half the price. I have one and love it.

Love my Bestop underseat lock drawer as well. $50 at Quadratec

I see the install is quite simple.

Would this be feasible: install the box tabs under the front seat bracket so as to get a little raise in the front of the seat to give a bit of tilt? I'm going to need to get about 3/8" rise to give me a bit of angulation.

I have the bestop under seat safe and there seems to be a second lever on my seat that doesn't allow this to be set up so its still in the box.

Yes, but any rise will be negligible at best.

1) what model Jeep do you have?
2) will it fit an 08 Sahara
3) do you want to sell it?

PM Boosta and he can tell you how to get around that.

Do you have a 2011? They 2011's have a new bracket under the seat. Search for other posts, we have already discussed removing this bracket to fit the drawer.

I have the underseat drawer, and it sucks....can only fit 10 round clips, not 17 with the SR9C.:firedevil:

 

[Lawngnome]

Its a 99 Sport, when I bought it, it said for 97-06 TJ
Bestop 42641-01 - Bestop® Locking Under Seat Storage Box in Textured Black for 97-06 Jeep® Wrangler TJ & Unlimited - Quadratec
Im sorry JeeperJake I don't think it would work for you.
The second lever is strange, kinda half way back in the seat. Didn't know it was even there till I tried to install this the other day. They are stock seats too so I don't know.
Thanks daggo66 ill shoot him a PM.

Install was kinda tuff,, those seat bolts are really on there!!!!!!

I see this is an older thread, but after reading the comment about an extra bar in the 2011, I tried searching for the mentioned posts about how to get around it.

I can't seem to find anything, does anyone have a link to the post? Or would it be ok to PM someone for instructions?

I am glad I checked here because I was planning on ordering this tomorrow, but now I feel like I should wait.

found the thread....never mind!

Lol. I was gonna bust Jeeperjake back and just say put one under the seat as the bolts will be easy to get out, i really wish some of you seen me taking things off this jeep to understand what I'm saying.
As for the topic I've been thinking about welding some cargo boxes to the tire wells inside my cargo area for secure storage. I have my carpet and rear seat removed and feel that some tall narrow locking boxes would be a nice addition and also something you don't see everyday. Not for everyone but perfect for me in my situation. A locking center consol other then an under seat box would be another nice option.

There's a delicate balance between too big and too small a security cubby.

I've been trying various sizes but haven't settled on anything yet.
