Is there a storage container that fits well in the "trunk" area of a JK?

I have done some searching and noticed that a lot of you are pretty good about finding storage boxes/containers that fit in the back of your JK/JKU, but with the rear seat/s removed. I havent seen anything yet for the small spot between the tailgate and the unfolded rear seat in the JK. With or without the sub and at about the height of the tailgate.

I didnt know exactly where to post this, so if it better fits in another subforum... let me know and I will repost it there.

I have a plastic Stanley tool box from wal-mart that fits in my 2-door with the seat up. Because the rear seat slants back towards the window, you will be limited in the height of the box you use.

In my JK Unlimited a .50 Cal Ammo can fits PERFECTLY under the back seats, even when folded. Even better, if you need to lock it, you can run a bike cable around the pillars and through the lid and lock it. I created a survival kit out of these to out in there.

Will a milk crate fit in the back of 2-door with the seat upright? It looks like it would but I haven't tried yet. I haven't gotten tje chance to "borrow" one from work yet.

Nope, the top is too narrow in my experience. We don't have a ton of options.

Hmmm I didn't think of that. I knew it would be close. I might just build a wooden box
