Default toolboxes

Anyone around here using one of these:

I'm getting tired of taking my crossover type toolbox off when I need the full length of the bed. (yeah yeah, I know I should get a trailer javascript:void(AddText('[:@]'))) Thought this might be a good alternative. I'm hoping someone here has these so I can see what they really look like.

Methos, Dodge produces some type of boxes that are the same, but fit in better. I thought they were Mopar, but I can't find it online... I just saw them at the Milwaukee Auto show, but didn't take any pics...

Hold on, I just found it in an old brochure.... let me see if I can find it online.

with our work pickups we have side wheel well toolboxes on each side of the bed, work really well for us, the 2 have enough room to carry most all tools and accessories that we need, makes the bed a lil bit narrower, but we can still fit a 4 wheeler inbetween the boxes, plus we have the extra length of the bed which is more useful for us. One set is older and the other pickup has DeeZee like in the link below

only thing with the new ones is we had to modify the latches slightly, the wind kept blowing them open when going down the road

I agree with Mayfair. That is sweet. I'll have to add that to the consideration list.

Thanks for the info.

I have the front of the box tuffy and love it. Only loose like 8 inches. Have had the side mount in regular steel and that one sucks!! Only get aluminum and they last. Price has sky rocketed though. I got mine for like $350 from clemson off road. Anywhere else is like $480.
