Fuel jugs will sit on the floor. The lower rail of e-track is just at the right height to thread a cam strap thru the jug handles. This is how a few of my buddies do it and it works great.
As for tires... we'll, let's just say I've got lots of options. I have provisions for shoring beams spanning across the nose of the car. That will carry 2 full sets of tires. Plan B is to simply stack them in front of the workbench. I've got those e-track singles in that area so that I can use a ratchet strap to secure the stacks. Plan C is my long-term goal of having a 2 shelf, wheeled tire cart made to fit in the same area. Mooty bought one of these, and now that he's used it a few times, I can see the expense is well worth it.

I seriously doubt it. I've got air conditioning & heating, so I will be inside the box... along with all my pals, since I'm the only one smart enough to add this to my box.

It's fun to play with your toys...
Have to let everyone who visits the "lux-o-barge" know that I'm a Porschephile:
New tools, all clean, shiny and well-organized make me feel good:

It's stored indoors. Much less chance of vandalism, break-ins, theft, etc. Not to mention, it stays clean and shiny. Best of all, it's out of the rain, sun, UV, baking heat and air pollution. Tires, rubber seals, gaskets, etc. will all last longer.
That giant warehouse in the background is her permanent home. No patrons are allowed inside. The pick-up and drop-off is in a secured lot. They valet the trailer in/out for you.

Been working on a quick disconnect for the Nitro bottle so I can put the safety cap on during transport, will take a picture today and post. Also definitely want a piece of rubber under the bottle to keep it from banging up the floor.
Your organization is way better than mine, it's like how Penske would do it, I have a long way to go. Where did you source the storage cabinet for the door?
