I've been looking for something that is durable and takes up the least amount of space for carrying spares and tools. Does anyone use surplus rocket or 81mm ammo boxes???

Yes and no.. I have used that style in the past as well as many other Mil Spec box's... I curently am using This storage set up (http://www.superford.org/registry/index.php?vID=144&fs=&dni=1&vs0=_623_&vs1=&vs2=&s1=&s2=&s3=&s4=&s5=&s6=&s7=&s8=&s9=&s10=&s11=&s12=&s13=0&s14=&s15=&s16=&s17=&s18=&s19=&s20=) for tools, spares, and other stuff. http://www.superford.org/registry/users/208/144/rack4.jpg

Yup. Use them for tools and spares.

amo boxes work great, they are tough and most seal up so they are water proof

I have a pair of them where my jump seats should be on my 40. convenient to get to, and hold up well to abuse!

I use a Rocket Box for all of my camping gear.

Spare (2-man) tent, ground-tarp, cooking stuff, canned foods, forks/spoons/blah, fire starting stuff..

It just sits outside until I'm ready to go camping, then it gets thrown into the rig..

Yep ive even put a couple in the zuk for some extra storage.....Passengers lost a little leg room but who cares:flipoff2:

I have one exactly like your pic TO THE "T"
