The Expand spell increases the capacity of the enchanted container. It is a part of Sindusk's server side Spellcraft mod.

Special care must be taken when using an expanded crate rack in a vehicle. If you unload crates from an expanded crate rack in a vehicle directly to the ground the crates will become “ghosted”. The crates will show on the ground but they are actually still in the crate rack you “unloaded” them from.
A crate rack in a vehicle that has had crates moved out of it will show that it has crates, but if you expand the crate list the crate list will show empty. A sign that your crate rack has ghosted crates in it is if the crate rack appears empty but is higher than 6.5kg in weight.
There are two ways to fix this issue:
You can move crates between crate racks in vehicles without issue. It is only when you unload crates out of an expanded crate rack in a vehicle directly to the ground that it happens.
The best practices when using crate racks in vehicles:
An unexpanded crate rack can hold 30 large crates or 51 small crates. An expanded crate rack can hold up to 100 large crates as per below. I haven't tested small crates yet; I will update this sentence when I do.

A weapons rack appears to be able to hold weapons/tools as per this list. Expand doesn't seem to be necessary.
