Brian, I have a couple of these. I'd like to suggest replacing the carpet with anti-slip mats, like you would use in tool boxes, in place of the provided carpet. This will keep your weapon from sliding around if you leave it in the lock box while driving.
Good video, thanks for posting. I purchased one of the Harbor Freight boxes and with the cable secured it beneath the rear jump seat. I've noticed it does slide around, and I'm working on some velcro or something to keep it in place.
It would have been good if you had moved the seat back to the proper driving position. If the box sticks out that far, it still is signalling something is in here. Thank you for sharing and be safe.
It’s definitely better than throwing it in the glove box, but that lock is only 1 flat head screwdriver away from entry. I think the real benefit of that box is it’s location. It’s probably 1 of the last places someone will look for valuables.
Aint that the damn truth... ive known two people that have left firearms in vehicles, both of them had them stolen while the vehicle was right in front of their own houses!!
So, you couldn't find a spare knife lying around could put in there? This under seat survival drawer looks better than an altoids tin. I wonder what else could go in there.
For LPL it would take a few seconds to break into. For us it would probably take about the same amount of time since this guy installed it incorrectly. We could just run off with the box open it with a hammer at home
Installing it correctly wouldn't have lifted up your seat at all. The whole reason for putting it under the seat frame is to make it hard to get out . If you would have installed it correctly It can't be removed without taking all 4 seat bolts out . By doing what you did you made it simple to steal the entire box and run away . A thief could have that box out inseconds. you should have just used your glove box instead of wasting your money .
Sorry, not impressed. That whole rigging is flimsy as hell, guy with a pair of pliers would have the goods inside a minute. May be good to keep the 6 year old out, but that's about it.

An added cable lock to the box (which I really like), as one more level of security.
Thanks for the video
I have one on my Tacoma under the back seat just for emergencies. My gun 24/7 with me.
Nice. Exactly what I was looking 4
Cool. I think Tuffy makes one too.

I’m going to check and see if they have one for my year. Thanks for the review

I also have a 2008 Jeep Wrangler 4 door JK as well... Mine is the Jeep Green color.

I was wanting to put loctite on those small screws so bad.🤣
Man, you are so right. Thanks. Now I have to take it back out and loctite it. What was I thinking?

Do they make models for other vehicles?
Thank you for sharing.
I wonder what the lock picking lawyer would say?

Have you installed one of these in your Jeep?
I remember summers at Ft. Benning almost always heat index 5
Would be nice if they made one with a remote electric switchand that was springloaded to pop open.
But does your Jeep go 80 mph? Just asking for a certain James... 😎
You should have that welded
I would not put it over the seat like you did. A thief could not get a tool under those tabs and break them off
All that box for a drawer that won't slide all the way out forcing you to dig for extra stuff towards the back.👎🏼

Another bad idea
Why do you say that?
