Nice, I can see the pic now! But I can't tell, does the bed rails stop at the toolbox? I can tell if the tool box is an over the bed or under from that angle.

I am pretty sure he has an (in the bed box) Not on the sides, and it looks like the bed rails stop before the bed box.

No its a low profile on top of the bed tool box that came from lowes. And yes the rails do stop before the box. I'll take a better picture tomorrow. I just did this with my phone and uploaded it to facebook so the quality is a bit low.

Not bad for $10! I've been waiting for a toolbox to pop up on craigslist. I just have to keep checking I guess because I don't want to spend $300 on a new one. Lol
