I was thinking of buying a toolbox for my truck but I don't know which one. There are chest types, low profiles, and much more. Which one do you have?

 

 

I have the new tool box with the GMC logo on it and it slides back and forth on the rails of the cargo management system. I love it. Its big enough for what I want, theres space underneathe it and its not high so you can still have a cover. Its a bit pricy, I paid $700CD for it, but I already had the Cargo Management installed at factory when I ordered the truck. Ill take a pic and send it too you.

I bought a DU-HA box for under the rear seat of my 07 NBS X-Cab. I like it a lot. It holds lots of stuff and is locked when the cab is locked. It is easy to access and the whole bed is free to use.

I don't have the fanciest of toolboxes, but it definitely gets the job done. I have a Husky Deep Well Truckbox: http://tinyurl.com/yq9dmf

 

I'm very happy with this box, and I've not had any issues of water leaking in as of yet. It's pretty easy to install, and the price isn't too bad. It's not as fancy as the Delta Pros, or Weatherguard, but it works really well for me. I've had it for about 8 months now, so I guess I'd know much better in a few years. It seems to be built pretty well for my taste and it installs with 2 j-bolts.

My new to me 02 ECSB has a extra deepbox w/ the lid the avg 4-6 in above the side rails. Great so far w/ the extra depth, but tonite I could not get my multi-ladder under it so I could close the tailgate. Two inches too long,... how often ya gonna hear that. Or the box is a few in. too deep. If I raise it, I cannot see the tail gate in the rearview. My 01 F150 Crew cab had the short profile box, reg. depth, polished. They look better to me, just do not hold as much. I do like the solid lid.

 

Some of the many decisions when trying to pick a box. Style, utility, bed usage, lo profile, plastic, aluminum, polished & staying in a budget.

 

Good Luck,

Sounds good guys. Is the DU-HA box a GM product or is that aftermarket?

 

 

The DU-HA is aftermarket, seen in Cabelas for one. It comes in three colors and fills up the area under the rear seat. It has slots to hold firearms, and space for tools and other things. It mounts via straps around the seat belt brackets, so no drilling is necessary. It is around $189 and shipping.

Truck customizers . com sells Du Ha for 170 bucks shipped I like mine its factory looking. I have a UWC tool box and I have had them for years $290.Dont buy trhe ones from Home Depot or the local auto parts stores they dont hold up(latches and hinges break-lid twists).I really like williamsvmax tool box but for me I need to put things like plywood in the bed regularly and I wouldnt be able to put too many sheets in with the little bit of clearance under it.

When I bought my NBS back in march I got a $500 gift card to Lowes for buying the truck. I bought the Kobalt low profile box and I really like it. The logo on the back looks really good and it is a well built box. Do no buy a RDS box. I had one on my 04 Z and it was a POS. I have had good service from cam locker, united welding, and also blue marlin. I mainly chose the kobalt beacuse I had $500 to spend.

      2026 6.6 L5P oil cooler leaking oil at 4,000 miles

      By Brendan C · Posted

      New to diesel trucks. I happened to find my oil cooler leaking oil externally with only 4,000 miles on the truck. I didn’t realize this was an issue until I started researching it. Dealer is going to replace it under warranty but I’m wondering if there’s anything GM is working on to fix this issue. I’ve heard the oil filter used is the same as they use on their V6 motors and that’s what is causing the problems. Should I switch to a bigger filter or keep using the OEM recommended?

      Seems to be Missing a lot of Updates

      By Vu1can · Posted

      So, GMCustomerService:  Judging by the Update History pictured above, is this truck missing any updates that it actually needs. If it's just for the infotainment system, the radio is working fine and no trouble with SeriusXM. and Android Auto is working fine wirelessly with my phone. Some months ago, an update notice was sent to my truck. I approved the update and it finished saying that the update was successful, but it seems that whatever that update was, it didn't actually get installed - at least not if I'm to go by the Update History shown above.   So, again, are there any updates that this truck really should have? I've checked with my dealer but they're reluctant or commit to anything and if I want them to check, they require a $200.00 fee just to check it out and then I'd have to pay for the actual update(s).    Ignorance is bliss, and if none of the updates goes to fixing any mechanical discrepancies, I'll just leave things as is.

      Electrical Problem - solved

      Hey everyone, I recently had an issue with my 07 2500HD GMT900. My DRL’s stay on at all times. Right front turn and right mirror turn signal indicator stay on solid at all times. By “at all times” I mean the only way to make them go off is disconnecting the battery. I tore the headlight assemblies out, tried disconnecting the harnesses to eliminate bad wiring at the harness, I unplugged the headlight switch, no change and the mirror turn signal still stayed on. My first thoughts were : Bad bulb and/or socket somewhere, under hood fuse panel bad, bcm bad, tail light or trailer wiring problem, or some random short to power in the harness.  Possibly a bad ground but unlikely. I had a big clue in the fuse panel, it had a burnt smell. I started pulling every fuse that had to do with DRL or right turn/park lamp. Nothing made the right directional turn off but pulling the DRL2 fuse made the DRL’s go out.  After studying wiring diagrams, I found that both problems had that fuse panel in common, the bcm also controls both problems but knowing the fuse panel had a burnt smell I removed and disassembled the fuse panel and found a little corrosion on the printed circuit board.  I ordered a new fuse panel from Amazon for like $260. When it arrived I installed it, and put everything back together, the problem was fixed. I figured the fuse panel needed to be replaced anyway so that was a logical place to start. Hopefully this story helps someone in the future. Regretfully I didn’t scan for codes before I did everything.

      Service 4wd, ESC light, traction control light on, Service charging system (vehicle may stall)

      That stinks. I’m sitting on the side of the road right now with the same issue. Never had an issue before taking it in for the ground strap recall. Now I’m outside of warranty and they’ll probably want $200 just to diagnose what they already “fixed”.
