    Now that box looks good.....Nice "Black shine" instead of the Blinding glare....Still looking and would really like the "gull wings"..just my job preference....

    Items in a box; tow strap,oil,anti-freeze,jumper cables....bungees,duct tape,box matches and rachet straps( fit right in that accessory tray I noticed) create a small tool box to ride along in "big brother box" with whatever tools you feel comfortable using;wrenches 1/4 drive socket set complete sae and metric,3/8 drive (same) and either a 1/2" or 3/4" bar with socket for the wheel lugs...factory wrench belongs in its cubby for life;):D
    Final item but only if you trust your temper.a BFH......hammers can be a great help but also create bigger "oops" in the "heat" of the moment :rolleyes::rolleyes:


    Dam,I am jealous.that box just "Fits"..makes your truck look :cool::cool:.....My Emerald Green Taco will look much better with black also...nice pix.now I'll be googling UWS dealers:D.

    Snoope back quiet

    Thanks everyone! yeah you can just go on the uws website and there is a link to locate dealers and its by zip code, thats what i did. i got it for 395 with tax and install, when i called another place for the exact same one, 449.99 without tax and install! kinda ridiculous. Yeah i had most of those in mid just putting it out there because i mean will all the people on here im sure there is someone with a cool/ crazy idea for it!

    One thing i was lookin to do are Pvc pipes in the little space between the box and the wheel well, for my fishing rods. (like a diagonal instead of mounting them straight up, where i think i would be worried for them sticking up that high! ) also thinking about keeping some essential lures and a 2 piece rod in there!

    Another question does anyone know if i could get in trouble for having one of those foldable army shovels in there?

    There would be no problem having a folding shovel in your toolbox, hell its not even illegal to have a gun in there.
