🚐 Curious about my van? Here's more info: bkxc.bike/the-van - Спорт
Normally I am cheap about some things, but I am willing to spend on things that I need to last, in the end it is worth it!
"buy once, cry once"
6:36 I'm calling it right now.
Next video about this, you're going to complain about how bad the handles are and that you have to take everything out to get 1 piece out, and how much better drawers are.
The second he showed the "future drawer system" that is coming out, I thought..."Yeah, he'll have that after he's tried to use that system a few times." There's a reason mechanics who use tools every day have systems with drawers!!
From Adam Savage: first order retrievability. When there are several steps to get the tool you need... that's annoying. However, for a no rattle vehicle setup, this is very cool.
You need the drawers, I have $2000 worth of this stuff and it's annoying AF to get something from the bottom box. I'm going to build shelving for my van so I don't have to unstack everything to get a tool
I was thinking the same thing but the other tool box wasn't portable or dividable. If you're working under a car or anywhere away from the vehicle it's nice to bring a group of tools in a small portable box or two boxes. And the top sections are almost like drawers with lids. But I don't like the foam sections in the bottom, that's nutso. That's for big power tools imo. I would rather more 1/4 heights so each foam has it's own case maybe and maybe a 1/2 height if a few power tools can fit in them like a cordless drill and impact wrench with batteries.
the drawers on the packout are the best
Who else has been saving those stickers for 20 years trying to find a good spot to put them.
Guilty
and will be saving them for the next 20...
Not me I use them instantly😂
I feel seen
Half the companies that I still have sticker saved for have either gone bankrupt or been re-bought by other companies. Hurst shifters
I have this permanently mounted in the back of my Jeep - it’s a great system. I can’t wait for the drawer version for easier access. I have one setup for 4wheeling and another for biking - no complaints yet!
Welcome to the club! I picked up a Packout Compact Tool Box for a bike box a few years back. After years of hard use, it still looks new, functions perfectly. I ended up doing a very similar build for the back of my van/truck to swap all my tools back and forth. Milwaukee has really impressed me.
I glued plexi glass to the foam and it makes for a solid foundation.
Milwaukee tool employee here (specifically tied to the group that designs and develops these tool boxes :) ) and long time BKXC subscriber... stoked to see these worlds collide *Que powerman5000*. See you on the trail!
Glad to see this. Im saving up for a van and have all my tools from when i did trades in my packout tool boxes
Knipex is an awesome brand. All their tool especially their channel locks
Tin snips to get the wolverine sticker.
Definitely. Cut it out and slap a magnet on the back!
Or just keep using the toolbox as-is, in the shed or garage.
No Wolverine left behind! *snikt!*
If the drawers and everything are shot from the box get an angle grinder and cut the side out. Mount the panel somewhere. Maybe in the van.
We love those DIY project. Great stuff Brian!
Great guide for not just the tool boxes, but the what tools and retaining systems to put into the them.
I still have stickers in my night stand that are about 20 years old because I can't decide where to stick them.
I also use the Milwaukee Packout system to keep my riding gear in in my truck. I use the big one for my shoes, helmut, knee pads, and gloves. I also have the smaller toolbox to keep my on the go tools in. I absolutely love them.
Thanks for the review. I am going to go for it. Waiting for the drawers. This will free up a ton of space for me. Thanks
I’m a yard dog and just bought the rolling pack out about a week ago and bought the mid size 75lb today. Love it
I don’t need another toolbox, but now I want this one.
Nice!! And I like the van set up for the bike, thanks for sharing bro, gonna make your new set up work for my bike travels, RV destinations, etc...
Great Choice Brian! At my work, I sell the packouts all the time they are the best. I always recommend them if customers are trying to buy a new toolbox
what a timely post. I was in homedepot yesterday making the same choices. Thanks for the review and post. Also thanks for posting that MT will be making a newer version with sliding trays.
I don't own many Milwaukee tools, but the Packout is so well built and versatile... I invested in one set for main stuff and use cheaper boxes/systems for secondary stuff. The little organizer tubs have holes on the back to hang off screws too. Really well thought out.
Yeah, I almost didn't buy them because the price can get pretty crazy but after the initial sticker shock, I've never regretted buying them. Very good system.
I had that exact same sticker way back when. Thank you for doing this video. Gave me ideas to create a mini travel tool box to take with me when I go riding.
What the berm peak sticker? I want to ride and Seth‘s backyard😂
I have a ProMaster Van set up very similar to yours. I use a Pedro's Burrito Tool Roll for my bike tools in my van. It carries every common bike related tool I need and it doesn't rattle or roll around at all. Much quicker access for your tools too.
Seriously great video!
Hi, great video. I love Milwaukee tools and the Packout system too. By the way they just launched a Packout with pull out drawers (a 2 and 3 drawer option available). I really like the M12 and M18 impact and drills. Cool bike repair stand too! Stay safe and healthy!
I just went through my cheap plastic bins o' bike tools and parts. Seeing a solid system with the foam inserts is about 100 times better than what I'm doing. And really, if it lasts, the cost for the system isn't that bad. Thanks!
I agree that when the drawer system comes out, it'll be a better solution for you
Love this video. Good luck for the future!
I have the same Knipex and love them!!
I live full time in my van and the tool solution I'm most happy with is my Harbor Freight tool kit that packs into a flat case that can side into small spots with minimal footprint. My bike specific tools are on a separate plastic bin that stacks with my bike parts bin and my bike cleaning bin.
The real menace is my home improvement tub where I keep my woodworking stuff and power tools for building new interior stuff
Was not prepared to see how banged up the old tool box was!
If you stil have the tool box you can use some ptfe (teflon) to gently remove stickers. You can buy sheets bars and rods of it on Amazon. I used a chissel i made out of 1/8 in sheet to remove a shipping lable from a cardboard box without even any of the brown box fibers sticking to the label. Worth a try to save the sticker

TIM from Canada suggestions for everyone looking for Milwaukee PAC out… you can get the same thing on eBay.. and if you look you can find them a lot cheaper than the stores.. eBay is good look through and you can find the price you were looking for for example. The boxes he is showing you now on this video.. there will be three or four different prices for this box somewhere really high some are a great price you can pretty much find all Milwaukee pack out boxes on eBay if you were looking… because I can tell you right now Home Depot Canada does not sell half of what they are telling you in the store… (eBay) is a great place to buy your Milwaukee pack )out if you are looking
Nic B , You cant really ever be too prepared. Getting pretty handy there bro ! Great job.
No, but there's this think called "the law of diminishing returns." You can keep spending and adding to the point where it just isn't worth it.
These are great videos love the tools and your set up!!
I'm proud of you for installing that yourself.
Awesome! I like it!
Jeep people and overlanders are starting to use these as well. I plan on doing something similar for my LJ. Thanks for sharing. Great video. 👍🏼
Oooohhh, W E R A allen wrenches! Nice quality brand which goes nicely with the Waukees.
Love the pack out system. I honestly never considered it for my bike stuff though. Good idea.
Lol when I find my MTB videos mixing with my milwaukee packout videos.
Very nicely done this is a project I feel will really help. Thanks for the inspriation! I think the slide drawers on the other Milwaukee kits look like the deal.
Love the video!
I use that same system for my bike tools. Great boxes!
If you peel the sticker off you can make it into a magnet. You can buy magnet sheets with adhesive backing on Amazon
I got the RIGID versions of this stuff. Priced a lot better and the one thing I really like is the open top crate that they sell with it too. Either way, nice stuff and great solid storage solutions.
route out a shallow shaped section for the base plate on the drawer slide, enough to let the boxes clear the top 🙂
You've convinced me to try the foam. I was worried it would look horrible but yours looks fantastic. Great video brother.
That is sick
Nice kit BRIAN!
Sticker hack, turn your stickers into magnets using magnet sheets. Even works for old stickers if you can peel them off.
Hey man, I don't think in the end you will regret buying into Milwaukee's system. I bought into the RIDGID system last year and have since expanded it as my needs change. I think now that you're somewhat vested so-to-speak, you can grow the system as your needs change. The upcoming drawers are something I "REALLY" wish the RIDGID stacking system had. Cheers.
I tried one of these boxes for my bike stuff, but I mostly wanted something to hold fluids (tire sealant, degreaser etc.) vertically and no toolbox I could really find was tall enough. These boxes are really big but the volume isn't as much because of the locking system etc. I ended up finding some Plano ammo boxes that work pretty well. One box has fluids and other items that go along with fluids like syringes etc. and the other box has tools and other spare parts. They were like $15 each.
We just did a post about the pack out on Instagram. It is so cool!!! It is an expensive investment but we are so happy with it. We have it in our Jeep and it holds all our cycling and car tools!
"Get it, got it, over it..." Man, I can sure relate to that! But, "Quality is remembered long after price is forgotten." Nothing like buying "good enough", only to end up buying the quality item later anyway. Makes the cost even worse! My motto is, do your research, figure out what is the best solution, then shop for price. If you can get a good price on the best solution, that's just icing on the cake. Frequently, that comes with being patient... Which is a virtue for my final cliché 😁
I have the Dewalt version of this type of system. I went with Dewalt because we had them at work and they were outstanding, they were less expensive than the Milwaukee, and they had ones with drawers
Been debating the Milwaukee for my bike tools, thanks this helped.
@@RealMTBAddict going to get the mounting system and mount on wall, really like how they all fit.
Thanks for reply 👍
I have an organizer attached to my tail gate used for small accessories and fasteners, I work off my tailgate ladders and materials in and out sheet metal fab off the gate etc. been in place about a year zero damage so far.
I'm a Milwaukee fan. I think they build good quality stuff. I don't think you be disappointed. That said, let us know next year how they held up. My drills are 4 years old and still awesome.
Got to say these type of videos are my favorite 👍
A place for everything. And everything in its place.
Looks amazing! Some of that foam would look really nice for those tools you velcroed out of the toolbox.
It's silly how excited one can get about organization stuff like that 🤟😂
Wera and knipex! Great choices!
Awesome!
Keep everything in your box!! It’s not like you’re carrying it on your back when riding!!
dang! That's hella nice!
@BKXC they have cleats you can buy separately and can place on your case for go pros so you can clip it onto the Milwaukees as well
The thing with the new tool box vs the old one , is that now to get the tool box open, you need to slide the whole thing out of the van so you can open the toolbox.
Not the best move for me.
And taking them out eventually breaks them. Been thru a cpl brands, I've had the best luck with rigid
Milwaukee is coming out with a box that will have drawers

@@Swiney52 Chinese junk just like Dewalt. Not a power tool tho. That's kinda sick tho, I like how it holds the drawers shut.
@@johnsonjay60 the packout system is made in israel not china
@@johnsonjay60 TTI is the parent company of both Milwaukee, and Ridgid, Ryobi as well. Both packout Milwaukee and ridgid boxes, are probably made in the same factory in Israel. TTI rates Milwaukee as their "premium" contractor grade tools. Not the same for Ridgid and Ryobi.
Yeah, IME as a general contractor, the packout boxes are worth the premium price. You can find deals at HD every once in a while. The new packout drawers are pretty great.
Super rad...well designed and ready for action! Now if you would help me organize our van to fit our kids bikes more easily...growing pains! Thanks for spreading the stoke!
Nice setup
You can lower the baseplate height with a custom by almost 2/3. 10 mm is enough and you also can go much smaller in foot print of the base.
Too funny. I've used a boxee Craftstman in my van for a couple of years. Makes a great step stool to get into my bed.
these are the strongest plastic boxes ever they will last a life time
My man packout #1
Nice Video!
You could not have made a better choice.
I own two full stacks as well as additional boxes for my truck and RV.
Clicked on this video because I saw Milwaukee. I am one of those crazy Milwaukee fanboys you talked about haha. I Always enjoy watching review videos on more packouts and how others organize their tools. Don't know how the heck in the world your retailer had several in stock, they are almost completely gone off the shelf when they become available at my Home Depot. Also, I too have that craftsmen tool chest, although I use it as a stationary set up at my parents house since I do not have a garage of my own, it's a great little tool chest. Also, if you are ever in the market for cordless power tools, Milwaukee is where it's at ;) Great video!
Man your channel is epic, if you come to Colorado this summer I would love to get a ride in with you!
Attention to the guy making the video.TIM from Canada… ... suggestions for you your foam inserts instead of making new ones… take your X-Acto knife and just cut around your tools cut out the ones you need and hot glue them onto a new piece of foam because you have already cut out the shapes now just glue them to a new foam piece.. with your X-Acto knife just cut out the ones you don’t want put them in another toolbox take the ones that you do need hot glue them onto a new board and you’re good to go..
"Except Wolverine. I've saved this for like for 25 years before sticking it to something" - love it! You are as bad as me. I've hung on to a "Fear The Mullet" sticker about the same amount of time and finally put it on my RTIC water bottle a couple months back. That's a hard thing that most will never understand : )
I’m a Milwaukee fan. I use the same boxes for my Jeep gear n tools
Milwaukee got it with their system ,last I knew there are 94 separate components available
Great setup. Drawers are obviously better, but that looks real good!
I bleed milwaukee red 😂 this makes me so happy....
There are lots of 3rd party “plates” out there can buy and work great.
Also, can cut the mounting plate you have and make it a bit “lower profile” if wanna do that
Cheers
I have a stack of those in the back of my Subaru Outback. Don’t like work trucks 🤣 The packout stuff is awesome. No sliding around. The vacuum would probably be handy for you too.
I love your outlook on things. Too many of these tool fan boys are more all about the red boxes than the tools inside and why you have them.
That Wolverine sticker is AWESOME!! Great suggestion for a tool box! Wonder if getting a kit makes you just wanna convert to Milwuakee tools as well. I mean that color is so sweet. But I'm fully content with my Makita power tools. Afraid they will feel betrayed...
Btw, LOVE that Pedros cassette "vice" tool. Never regretted pushing that buy button on that one!
oh and i guess im a little late but you could rout the table down and recess the packout plate if you really want a little extra room between it and the bottom of the storage box hanging above as show in your vid. maybe even get away with cutting the carpeting out from under and see if a few millimeters does the trick.
Hey Brian! long time no see!! 7:50 the nippers make the best nail clippers. soo much more precise than the normal clippers!! cheers!
Pretty sweet, dont have that much room in truck, but gave me some ideas.
I like it, great video as always, but the moment you showed me the future option with drawers. I'm waiting!
Didn't even realize you were missing what looks to be a pair of Knipex pliers wrench? One of my favorite tools ever? You can send it my way. Lol
When you next go to whistler you should do the Whistler triple crown
Lovely overkill 👌🏻
I am considering something like this . I'm an RV tech and I can be 4 hours away from the shop (one way). The thing is I need ALOT of tools and parts on hand. You also need to be ready to get a call at 3pm and be ready with everything you need on hand without going back to the shop.
Use steamer to remove stickers. Works 👍
