Truck tool box

Glen I looked all over the place for ready made boxes to mount on the rear of the truck behind the axles but couldn't find any large enough to use the available space.

 

I ended up getting a local shop fab up a pair to my spec. Maybe cost me $200 ea more than store bought ones but I have huge storage that fits the lines of my bed.

 

Have to live with what you chose for long time.

I'm going to build the rear box. It will be a pass thru type. Use it for ramp storage. This is for the front as I have it singled. Very busy working now and hoping I could find some acceptable for front area. Easy to bolt on. All I have found are only available on line. Home Depot sells Buyers one 24" deep but only on line. Doesn't even state ship to store. Northern sales also but only on line. Don't really like something that large shipped.

While we on this subject, I can remove my lower fairing rear section on passenger side and install a 4' long box. On the driver side my battery box is behind the fairing. Now looking at my truck, it don't line up nicely like the Volvos. There will be a gap between the box and remaining fairing. I would love to have a 4' box on that side. If I keep the firing a 2' box I get. No tank will be exposed, just chassis. What is your thoughts on this?
