    Oh that gives me a wicked idea.......drill 4 holes in the back, attach molle locks and mount it to the webbing .

    Is it waterproof?

    Doesn't seem water proof. There is no o-ring seal around the lid snap
    • Durable external reinforced rib design on a high strength injection-molded polymer body
    • Rigid shell construction provides protection against bumps and abrasions
    • Crush, dust, chemical, UV and weather resistant
    • Protective positive-friction lid closure that's reinforced with a steel hinge pin
    • Internal protection with a soft-surfaced high-density foam lining

    ....yes it is....and the more I pour around it the more things I find (in a VERY good way) that he failed to mention in the ad when he sold it...battery controllers, regulated solar charging inputs, switching and such. I loose a little internal space in this one to the old one (it is a BOAT inside) but gain a deal of extras. Just measured and my ARB full length steel roof rack will fit (with a new model specific fitting kit) so that saves me about $1500. The ride is harsh in back and I was accounting for some lighter springs (they are 3000kg - heaviest made) but also found that he had air bags added under there as well and they had more pressure in them than I would have unladen so I dropped them to 3psi (from 10) to see if that makes it easier on my back.

    Funny thing is that I am concurrently packing up my old one to take away for a week in the bush :D

    not a purchase but a trade - my very clean used redline synthetic oil from the B4000 went to my buddy, for use in his oil burner truck. And I got free breaky for it.

    Not sure, I don't have any Oakley Fuel Cells.
    But the Internal Dimensions are 6" x 2.11" x 2.11"
