Your New Item Box

We can elevate this item by breaking physics.
What you need is a pallet, which can be found outside the house, and next to the motorcycle frame.

Anything that can bound to the bag can also bound to a pallet.
Any item not vehicle tagged can be placed and locked on the pallet can be stored into your inventory.


To lock the bag to the pallet, have the bag open with the lid erected up. Use the lid as the socket for the gap under the pallet. Push the bag until the bag snaps to the pallet.
Weight limits apply. It's ideal to look down while selecting your saddle bag. To store the items select the saddle bag and not the pallet.

I use saddle bags like cabinets in my bus. I have 3 or 4 usually filled with meat. I use the shovel or katana to chop up the big slabs of meat into smaller chunks and then stack them neatly into a saddle bag. if the chunks are standing on end, they clip through the lid and you can grab a snack without even opening the lid. A pallet will also fit nicely in the back of a bus where I store water and fuel containers.

Cool guide. I've used the pallet trick many times, especially when using cars or motorcycles that are affected by all the weight when you store heavy items conventionally. Items stored in your inventory do not contribute to total vehicle weight, so doing this usually makes your ride more stable.

Confusion: In my singleplayer world, I have a saddlebag attached to my car, and a milkcrate dangling off of it with my hose physics locked inside.

It glitches for me sometimes where it will lose the physics lock, but reloading the save file or switching the physics lock settings from default back to whole interior remedied it

Come to think of it, I haven't encountered anything that wasn't stowable in containers other than a physical vehicle
