Truck box

Looking at some truck boxes as my next mod. I figure I would get this part settled out before I Line-x things next spring.

Maybe this? but I don't want to take up any of the 8x4 space in the bed.

I was looking at something like these. Anyone have any experience with these boxes?



My ideal box will:



1: Keep honest theives out.

2: Be easliy removable. leaving little behind for mounting hardware to get in the way of "stuff"



I expect these specs to be difficult to come by.



then I came across the links above. And, well if I can keep the basic 8x4 space. I'll be happy with a box that is perminent.



Idealy, I'll prolly get 2 24" boxes and mount them near the tail gate. I will be storing in these boxes:



Diesel attitives, Max, 2 quarts for Marvel's oil and 2 quarts for PS.

10-20 feet of tow straps to pull (get pulled) out of ditches.

My 4 tie down straps for stuff.

Ice scrapper

150foot blue cord for block heater.

detail supplies, microfiber towels, detailer



Mag light (beating stick) will be in cab.



Would the 2 24" boxes be sufficient for ths and then some? My goal here is to remove all stuff from under my back seats for my future stereo.



Also, the stock tie down hooks in the bed are great. I would like to keep them, or have them relocated. suggestions on this?

I don't know if you are against a crossover box. I have one of these and I am really happy with it:

It has a full length lock, sticks up only a 1" above the rails, and is easy enough to install and remove. It also leaves about a 3 or 4" space underneath it so I can carry large sheets of wood or long timbers.



It wasn't cheap, but it's held up very well.
