urway2slow Posted January 2, 2010 Posted January 2, 2010 Having a hard time finding a tool box like I want. I want it to sit on the bed rails so I can slide some things underneath it if needed, like plywood, snow ski's, snow boards, etc.. its a 2000 silverado stepside. Any suggestions? I know it has to be 48" or less wide to fit down in the bed. maybe around 55" full length.

elcompalaline Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 I don't have a stepside but I do have a toolbox "chest", the only issue I see with the ones that sit over the rails is security. They are in plain view for thieves, and chests sit either at level or a couple inches under the rails. So from a distance you wouldn't know it was there, only if you were to walk near the truck bed. You would not be able to slide anything under it though, but you know what you want and thought I would throw it at there. Good luck with your search.
poncharello Posted January 3, 2010 Posted January 3, 2010 +1 on the WeatherGuard. They are more expensive, but will last a lifetime. I could not be happier with mine. It sits on the rails and allows me room to slide things underneath. I got the low profile version and it is not as obstructive looking out the back window. WeatherGuard
urway2slow Posted January 3, 2010 Author Posted January 3, 2010 Thanks for the replies. I will look into Weather Guard tonight.
