    Gunna get something for the truck soon. Waiting to see if I get a reply from a guy selling one of Craigslist or I'll just order a new one. I haven't nodded the taco in like 3 years and I've been wanting to do this since I bought her about 4 years ago

    Bought
    I'd sell it to my dad. He's the one that sold me the 99 for pennies on the dollar. Plus that way he has a truck and a spare vehicle and I can borrow it if I ever need to. Win/win.

    At first I had to use both latches to open the tool box, but luckily it just needed a small machined bolt to fix the latch on the driver side. Took less than 5 minutes and now either latch will open the box. Just waiting for previous owner to mail me the key so I can start keeping my tools in there. Right now it's just jumper cables, straps, Jack, tire iron etc
