Hi Kristian, great question! The etrailer Anti-Rattle Hitch Collar, part #e55YV, works by taking the slack out between your hitch receiver and the shank of your ball mount or hitch-mounted accessory. It clamps around the outside lip of your 2-1/2…
Hey Scott! The etrailer Anti-Rattle Hitch Collar #e55YV is rated for up to 10,000 lbs gross trailer weight and won't reduce the capacity of a properly matched towing setup. As always, your actual towing capacity is determined by the lowest-rated…
Hey Mike, congratulations on the new truck! You can definitely use the two together. The Curt StowPro 2-Ball Mount #C34FR53HY uses a standard 2-1/2" shank, making it a great match for our etrailer Anti-Rattle Hitch Collar #e55YV. It installs…
Hey Greg! The etrailer Anti-Rattle Hitch Collar for 2.5" Hitch Receivers #e55YV is not compatible with a weight distribution hitch. This is really the only restriction for our anti-rattle. If you need an anti-rattle for a weight distribution…
Hey Tom, congrats on the new truck! Typically when we hear that someone has the OEM tow prep package they mean the puck system. This is going to be five circular holes built into the bed of your Ram truck and is by far the best way to attach a 5th…
Hey Troy! I went ahead and attached the installation instructions for the #TS64ZR as pictures below. You will have to lower the underbody panel, lower the exhaust, and remove/drill holes in the heat shield for installation. Most of the hitches for…
Hey Ross, the Watchdog Power Center Surge Protector and Voltage Booster #HU74ZR that you referenced has an IP65 rating. This rating indicates that the devices are completely dust-tight and protected against water projected from a nozzle so it can get…
Hey Tod, the two UWS boxes have different shapes and capacities. If you check out the attached pictures you can see the differences between the part #UWS08298 and #UWS01044 to get a better idea. The #UWS01044 has a slightly smaller capacity at 8.2…
Hey Jonathan, We do have a kit from Infinite Rule for locking pins specifically for that B&W Tow And Stow With Pintle #IR52FR. This comes with the specific locks needed for that pintle hook you have and will have all points lockable. What are you…
Hey Mark, the only real downside to an offset ball like the Gen-Y part #GY43XR is going to be that it costs more typically and it would take up more room when stored compared to a non-offset ball like the #C38CR. The handling and weight carrying…
Hi John! The etrailer Anti-Rattle Hitch Stabilizer for 2" Hitches - Vinyl Coated Steel #e99007 could be used with weight distribution, but I don't think it's the one I would go for. It works really well for things like bike racks, cargo…
Hey Tom, congrats on your new truck! The PullRite OEX SuperLite 5th-Wheel Hitch for Ford Super Duty Prep Package item #PUL89ZR is going to be significantly lighter and easier to hook up. It weighs only 85 lbs and has a different attachment method.…

What types of tool boxes work best for trucks and trailers?
Crossover boxes sit behind the cab and leave the bed floor open. Chest boxes provide deeper storage on the bed floor. Side-mount and wheel well boxes offer easy access without taking up much space. For trailers, underbody or A-frame boxes keep tools secure and out of the way.
How do I make sure a tool box will fit my truck?
Measure the width, height, and depth of your truck bed. Ensure the tool box for truck won’t block your rear window or interfere with a tonneau cover. Always check compatibility with your vehicle’s bed rails and accessories.
What’s the difference between aluminum, steel, and plastic tool boxes?
Aluminum is lightweight and rust-resistant. Steel is more secure but heavier. Plastic is weatherproof and won’t dent but is less durable overall. Choose based on how much strength, weight, and weather resistance you need.
Are truck tool boxes waterproof?
Most are weather-resistant but not fully waterproof. Rubber seals help block rain and dust, but over time, they may wear out. For added protection, consider a box with reinforced seals or use a waterproof liner inside.
How secure are truck tool boxes?
Most boxes include built-in locks, but security depends on material, latch quality, and how it’s mounted. For better theft prevention, use a truck bed tool box with tamper-resistant locks and bolt it down securely.
