I've been looking into getting a tool box for the bed of my truck, sacrificing bed space for having tools with me all the time. Its worth the trade off though, never know when your going to need something. I was thinking of getting the Delta Champion Model # 369002 which sits inside the bed instead of on the sides of the bed, found here: http://www.pickupspecialties.com/Del..._crossover.htm

What brand boxes are you guys using and do you have any problems with them? Also, does anyone have a black box like the one I'm interested in? How does it hold up to scratches, wear, etc.

 

i had a black box and it scratched up like all hell . delta is good but kobalt is made my them aswell in their contractor searies , so i went wit the kobalt as it was a 100 cheaper , no problems .

 

im thinking about getting one that is flush mounted with the bedrails or even below...just so it doesnt attract unwanted attention. Kobalt and Better Built are good ones.

 

The one I posted is just like that, it sits inside the bed rails, though I measured and it will stick like 1/2 inch above the bed rails. If I didn't have the bed liner it would be just below.

 

Mine is powdercoated and holds up really well, ive had it two years or so and still looks like the day I bought it

 

NICE!! Thats the one i want right there!

Its a UWS?

 

My current one is a UWS, no problems other than a dent from giving the ATV a little too much gas one day, LOL!

I've had a regular and black Delta and a Dee Zee through the years and honestly don't really see a quality difference between them.

My next box will be a super deep one though or one that sits inside the bed and not on the rails. You can NEVER have too much space and I think the 9" underneath my toolbox is the biggest waste of space in my whole truck...

 

Matt, do you know what model number that is?

 

I think this one is it? Maybe
