I need a good tool box for my van. I have a husky now and it keeps sliding open when I stop and go. It's unbearable.

Can some one give me ideas about where to find a sturdy, well-built and best suited for a van tool box? The more compact the better. The largest tool that I have planned for it is a sawzall.

I looked at the craftsman line but at Sears the stuff seems to be weak. Also, I couldn't find one that would work well in my van.

I also looked online for reviews and couldn't find a site with a bunch of reviews on a wide range of products.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have the bottom half of a craftsman roll away in my truck, I took it apart and modified the drawer locking mechanism its loaded and has held up very well

I have a craftsman eleven drawer roll away as well, I did away with the mechanism and have heavy rubber straps going top to bottom. I have it set up just behind the drivers seat about eighteen inches. I have two milk crates mounted on top for books and such. I had to cut into the box in the back so I could move it back over the gas fill line. The box has held up well over the years, it does need a little tlc once in a while. My biggest problem is carrying to many tools, I have slowly been weaning myself off the excess tool problem.
