Mounting pelican case on tunnel

[Bcorn]

Check out portatac racks ,they come in two sizes I have the large one and I have a pelican case on it.I believe it is the medium 1450 case but not sure I would have to check.They come with two quick release straps that I use to hold case in the rack which is nice because it is simple to remove if you want or to open the case when you are out riding.

Ended up mounting a 2300 Storm to my tunnel. I used craiggerbuilt polaris t slot rails mounted with their included hardware, and drilled some new holes with countersunk bolts run up through the bottom into the case. Case appears to be bomb proof, and mounting seems sturdy although the rails are only 0.5" thick. If anything fails it will be the rails. Time will tell.

Threw in a 6 pack for size reference. 0.71 cubic foot of DRY storage.

I recently mounted a IM2450 pelican case. I didnt get any foam with it and have been looking for a piece for the bottom and maybe the top to keep stuff from bouncing around too much. Have you found anything that works well? The foam pelican sells is quite pricey.

Thanks

I used the Seahorse box ( very similar to Pelican and I use 80/20 extruded 1" (from Orange Aluminum online) makes it easy to go on top of the slots in the tunnel and then has its own slot for t bolt or carriage type bolt thru drilled hole in the bottom of box. I also thought of trying to make Quick Release setup so you could take the Pelican/Seahorse box off quickly and into the house but did not get that done last season--maybe this fall yet.

Mine came with foam which I took out, I stuff mine so full of chit it cant move around so its not an issue for me.

Just setting up my fresh axys. Thought I'd give this a bump. Has anyone come up with a tool-less quick removal system?

So a guy can easy pop it off and take in the hotel at night. I was even thinking I could toss in a few HotHands or similar to keep water etc from freezing. Or maybe a divider inside in which I could have half of it "heated" on those cold days where your water freezes. Warm a sandwich maybe?

I'd think it could be done pretty easy with a quick-clip strap similar to how my Jerry can fastens in its holder.

Just picked this up a couple weeks ago to carry my Drone and Camera in.
VERY Clean fabrication.
Super clean mount for a Ski-Doo LinQ system.

I mounted this using carriage bolts and some rubber grommets. After I drilled the holes in the box I used rubber inserts in the holes so when you tighten it down it creates a water proof seal. I also did the same for mounting the shovel.

See post #9 above. I'm still using the exact same setup. Works awesome. You could also use square aluminum tube mounted to the sled, with holes or slots or even snowman keyholes to capture a nut or bolt end or whatever that's protruding from the case. Hold it down with ratchet straps, bungee, or webbing and buckle, like mine.

To the guys with the ridgid boxes Just wanted to say thanks for this awesome affordable storage idea. Just mounted mine and I'm stoked
One question - Do you do anything to keep the latches closed (like put a carabiner through the little holes) or do they stay closed on their own?
Worried that it could pop open with hard riding or rolling over a few times.
Thanks

I’ve never had mine open up while riding. Have had it for 2 years now without a problem. Over 2500 mountain miles on mine.

thinking of giving this a try, have a black tunnel so I would rather try the poly bases instead of the aluminum. Just curious how far off the tunnel you guys would recommend getting the box?? Found both 1" square and 3/4" square.
