If it's attached to the tipping bed it's going to be hard to keep gear in place. Wouldn't you be better shortening the bed and having a tool box/cabinet built on the chassis?

I have a box built in the tipper body on my 7.5t. When saws and fuel cans are in there they dont move much. Ropes and bags etc on top shelf out of the chain oil.

I'm a bit anal with how things are put in the box, as everything goes where it should. I can look in there and see straight away if something is missing.

It's a PITA, but it can be done.
As Al says, everything has to have its own little bay, nothing a weekend and some cheap ply won't sort out.
Bungees and mini tie down straps help.
Fuel and saws are obviously the main concern
