Default toolbox install

So i met a guy a few towns over and bought a UWS toolbox for $45. I had no idea how old it was, what kind of condition it was in, if it was the traditional single backwords opening door, or gull-wings. i did know it would fit. so when i met him it was a gull-wing, no biggy. it isn't polished (expected) and it was dirty as a Jolly Rodger. But i was like w.e. So today i preasure washed it and experimented with Brass-o. all of the dirt came off and it looked better. And the brass-o, in the area i did it, will polish her up, just gonna take forever n a day. I think it is polished aluminum b.c when i drilled my holes to mount the toolbox, and my CB antenna it was no trouble, and i was using wood drill bits. but anyway, here are some pictures. enjoy.

tool box looks nice, I love mine... I think you should get 1.5in coil spacer for the front

Dakota will want you to join the lowered club
