    I also have @mattgecko 's under rail lights. They work perfect and his service is great.

    That is not a bad price especially considering the super high quality.

    However, I believe Owens Products may sell direct now - So before you buy it retail, contact them directly to get a price quote. Let them know where you found it and that price; then ask if they can give you a better deal.

    Here are their website and Facebook page - both have "Contact Us" options.
    I absolutely love mine. This model fits perfectly in the bed of my Gen 2, and works great.

    Thanx for that, much appreciated.
    I have a gen 3, but looks like dimensions should work perfectly also. I’m ar 42.5” between wheel wells and about 53” so interior bed width.

    Edit:
    Called Owens up and they have discontinued that specific model#.
    Looks like will have to bite the bullet on that retail one.

    If that's discontinued, I would call that bumper place and see if they really have it in stock before you add to cart. Many companies don't update their websites to reflect current inventory. If you buy without calling, most likely they will charge your card and then a week later, you will get a refund with the explanation that it's on backorder.

    Any up date if this box has been found for sale anywhere else? This is exactly what I’m looking for. Does Owens maybe have a similar size model to this one?

    I just got a UWS that was made for a flare-side Ranger Splash. Fit is good but it won’t sit all the way down on the wheel wells. The bottom floor of the box starts to wedge in between the wells about half way down. I actually like it where it is (the lid is flush with the bed rails) and have it blocked up with 4x4s until I find some aluminum square tube to do a permanent mount. Thanks @TACTICA for posting this, I really like the idea of the box not being on the bed rails in case I ever put a cap or rack system on one day. BTW do you have any pics of the under rail lights? Thanks!3FA6E15C-CD09-417B-86F7-207B890872D3.jpg0685FF2B-F794-42F4-8976-C3C7BA92C281.jpg

    I have under bedrail lights from @mattgecko. I love them - they work perfect. He is great to work with too. I'll try to take some pics tonight after dark to show how well they work.

    Check out "jobox 1403980" I made some mounts to the bed rail with aluminum shelf brackets I had on hand, I used cairrage bolts to anchor the tailgate end. I spent probably a couple years searching craigslist to find a deal and drove a twelve hour round trip, but it suits my needs perfectly.

    Old post, but do you still have that tool box? I am curious if you can measure the width of the lid? I have a camper shell and want to get a box like yours. I am worried that the lid might be too wide to clear the camper's mounting brackets as the brackets protrude in from the side rails an inch or so. Thanks!!!

    Does anybody know where I can find this tool box or something else very similar? I couldn’t find it anywhere and would like the same setup.

    Bringing back an old thread. Ive been looking for a tray that ive seen before. Looks stainless or aluminum. It doesnt have a lid. Sits flush with the bulkhead of the bead and mounts to the front part of the drivers and passenger side t-slot rails. Like an open bin from side to side that fits under a tonneau cover. For tools an misc. items. I found one company, cant remember who the heck it was and not finding it in a search anymore.
