low profile black tool box

Taylor Wings chest box... better built than any UWS I've had.

 

I love the size of this box...who makes it, and where did you buy it?

 

I bought the Kobalt low profile aluminum last week from Lowes and with military discount it came to $180 plus tax. Mounted with USA Progrip J bolts ordered from Ace Hardware online for $12. Great deal and great box for short money. UWS makes an awesome box if you have $500 to spend, but for quality and low price I vote Kobalt.

 

UWS ftw

 

UWSs but out of my range right now. Does anyone have the black Husky lo pro from Home Depot? Any probs? Kind of leaning that direction. A little wider than most but sits nice and low from the pics I've seen.

 

im installing some "weather guard" boxes in black on 4 company trucks where i work. their pretty sick! i'll sit in my truck to see how low profile it is, snaps sum pix and return here tomorrow with em! i thought about adding one but iono how much i need one... we'll see whuts up tho!!!

 

Just went yesterday looking at the UWS Low-Pro black boxes... "Truck Supply and Outfitters" here in Tuscaloosa, Alabama sell them for $339 + tax (comes out right at $375.

Should I go ahead and take the plunge, or has anyone found them cheaper online?

I've found the same boxes used in my area for $225 - but it has plenty of scratches, anyone know how much it would cost to have a box powder coated?

 

yeah that sounds about right.

 

Thanks, just bought one on eBay.. Guy had a buy-it-now for $250 for it NEW and said he would charge me actual shipping costs. It feels like a game of roulette though because if shipping cost $100 or more than I would have been better buying local.

Anyone know the cheapest efficient way to ship a toolbox?

 

ChaseUA,

was just about to ask how far you are from Pensacola Florida....Daws factory is there and you could check out quality plus different versions of their boxes..

 

snoope: Small world but I used to live in Pensacola, FL. It is actually about a 4 1/2 hour drive from my current location, but my parents live about 35 minutes from there...

 

lucked out and got a like new uws low pro silver box for free , first thing i did was have it linex'd. probably just going to do the 3/8" self tap screws to mount

 

UWS low pro black

 

Would you happen to have the model number for this box?

 

I think its TBSD-63A-LP

 

What are you guys attaching the U Botls to? Inside the Rails or Under the Rails? Suggestions?

 

Under the rails and through one of the slotted holes with the hook portion.

 

The j hook standard attachment is ok. People have used them for years but deezee makes a real slick aluminum block hook that works with bed rails or the track system.
