You will enjoy how much the sleek look of UWS's Low Profile Series complements the latest designs of today's trucks. The toolbox sits just 2" above the truck bed rails instead of the standard 4," providing a better view out the back window for maneuvering or keeping an eye on your load. The insulated, beveled, single lid opens fully to 90 degrees with the help of two super-duty lift cylinders, which raise the lid and hold it open as you load and unload your gear. Smaller items and tools can be stored conveniently on the divided, sliding tray, ensuring they are readily available for use.

What's up everybody, it's AJ with etrailer.com. Today we're checking out this UWS crossover style toolbox and this is gonna be on a 2013 Ram 2500. It doesn't give you as much space at the bottom as some of the other crossover design ones do but it's gonna be a deep angle design. So you can see the angles I'm talking about there on either side, which is gonna give you better access to the tie down points here towards the front of your truck. Now we're talking about the space at the bottom. Let's go ahead and get that measurement now, get it outta the way.
With my tape measure, we're gonna check that out. We're gonna go to the raised portion of the bed drop that down there, and it's gonna be three and three quarters of an inch at the bottom. So like I said, there's not a whole lot of space but if you had some lumber, you might be able to fit that underneath there. Another measurement that's important is how much it adds to the top of your bed rails. So if I come right here, looks like it's gonna be about two and three quarters of an inch it adds to the top.
So it's still low profile. You won't have to worry about it blocking your view out of the back window. This is lower than your headrest on the back row. So you don't have to worry about it being in the way. Looking the construction of the toolbox.
It's gonna be aluminum with a black powder coat finish on it. And it's also matte black. So it's not gonna be glossy. I think the matte black ones hold up a little bit better with scratches aren't as easily seen. So I think this one's gonna look nice on the truck and stay that way for a while.
Looking at the front, there's gonna be two latches. There's gonna be one on the driver's side, one here on the passenger's side. The one on the driver's side actually locks. So that's a good thing to have, especially since you know, as the driver you're probably gonna be going into the truck. So you're gonna lock it before you go and leave. Or when you're hopping outta the truck you can just unlock it really quick. Now there isn't one on this end, but whatever latch you use when it's unlocked is gonna open the lid. The lid opens up on its own. You might need to push this one a little bit. It seems like it's not as aggressive as some of the other struts and the other boxes I've used but still opens up on its own and stays open. You don't have to worry about it pushing back down on you when you're inside. Looking at the inside, we have 10 cubic feet on the inside of the toolbox here. And then we have this tray up top, which is nice for tools you use more often than other ones. So you can throw a drill or an impact or a hammer, some screwdrivers up here on top and hit slide from side to side. So that just could be easier to reach in and grab that rather than reach into the bottom of the box to try and find what you're looking for. Attaches with J hooks. So there's one on each side, just put it in the slot here in the side of the box, you got a washer and out up top the J hook goes underneath the bed rail, has a really good hold on there. You can see I can shake the whole truck back and forth. So you don't have to worry about the box slide and moving on you. Focusing on the lid, it's gonna have a foam seal all around the top part of the lid. And then the insides actually be filled with foam. So that's not only gonna help insulate the box but help its keep its form if you put something heavy on top, it wouldn't just dent in on the aluminum. When you close it, another nice thing is the lip comes down a little bit further than just the top of the box. So that's just gonna help protect with that foam seal on the inside. Helps prevent the water from going up and into the box. Overall, I think the box is gonna be a great addition to your truck. Not only does it help you organize all your tools and keep 'em all in the same spot, but it gives you that space on the side to access those tie down points. So that's something you use all the time and also you can lock up your tools so that nobody can mess with it when you're not around. Well, I think that does it. Thanks for hanging out, I hope this helped..

69-7/8" Long x 20" wide x 18-3/4" deep; 10 cubic feet; 2" height above bed rails; deep, angled box with foam filled lid and paddle lift handles; low-profile top; aluminum constructionI highly recommend etrailer for any trailer or truck parts. I have never worked with anyone that was as knowledgeable and helpful. The process was flawless. Further, after I made my order, they followed up and let me know several times how the order and shipment was progressing.
After 2 weeks I finally got my toolbox this is good for a 2001 Ford ranger stepside it doesn't say it would fit but I measured it before I bought it had one little ding in the corner but I touched it up with spray paint overall it's an excellent toolbox and it fit perfectly this is originally for a Chevy S10 but I measured it and it fits good I would recommend this to anyone who owns a Ford ranger stepside! Check out the pictures you can see how well it fits! It is hard to find a toolbox that fits a Ford ranger stepside I used to work in the Marine Corps parts department in the motor pool so I know how to measure parts at first they said this wouldn't fit my truck but I told them I measured it!
Love my toolbox!! I wouldn’t trade for anything. I was a little expensive but I needed it. Thanks a bunch
My UWS Crossover tool box fit great. Only minutes to install. Looks great and needed on my 05 Ford Ranger single cab.
great box much better than one from tractor supply and other places very solid construction you can feel the difference i like it
I've had bed box for almost a year now. So far so good. The finish looks as good as the day I installed the box, which by the way was a snap to install. I'm very happy with this product and glad I didn't go for one of the less expensive products like a few of my buddies did. Most of them have constant problems with their bed boxes. IE: hinges freezing up latch problems and most of all the finishes that aren't holding up.
The tool box works great. Works for what we needed and is low profile.
I've had this tool box for about a year. Its held up well without issue. This replaced a 9 year old tool box from Lowes that cracked at the bed support. So far so good on this one. The locking and opening mechanism works great and is covered so things dont bind it up. The only strange thing is that after a windy snow storm there was snow inside the tool box and I hadn't driven anywhere.
I was so happy to get this for my son. The only one i could find that would fit his ranger at the time. he uses it every day and it works great after one year. packaging , no scratches, and installed so easy that i went and bought me one. would recommend. sorry not much for technology or i would have added photos.
When I purchased the toolbox I forgot to mention that I have a bed liner in my vehicle. Therefore I had to put a 3/4 inch spacer on the top bed rails so the bottom of the toolbox would clear the bed liner over the wheel wells and fuel tank spout. Other then that I really have enjoyed the toolbox and have gotten many compliments as well.
Been happy with my purchase. I gave it 4/5 stars because it arrived with a dent on the lid that I was able to remove with a rubber mallet and a 2x4. The metal inside reflects poor workmanship. There are some sharp edges near the latch mechanism that I discovered firsthand after reaching in there. Aside from those issues it has functioned well and I find the dual lid release latches are convenient.
Fast and friendly service.
Awesome package, looks great, fits perfect. Delivery time excellent
The truck box is a good looking truck box but that’s about all the good I can say about it. The striker for the latch continuously came loose causing the lid not to latch completely and the top to come open going down the road. I fixed this by putting loctite on the nuts holding the striker in place. The gaskets along the lid have completely turned loose and are no longer there. The keys never worked from the first day. Overall not very satisfied with the quality of the box for the price.
Here is a picture of the tool box I ordered, installed on my truck.
Top of the line service and product. Very happy with entire transaction. One year later box still looks and performs like new. Thanks
Toolbox came as advertised. Perfect fit in truck bed. Sturdy and well built. Easy to install. Exactly what I was expecting
Box fit great. Installed in minutes with no drilling holes in truck.The black finish matched truck perfectly.I like the lid that raises automatic but stops before hitting the cab of the truck.
nice box looks like in was made for the truck, only thing the tray sliding back and forth but a piece of tape fix that, also light enough to get in and out by myself
Good looking toolbox. Sturdy and good quality.
It was delivered just like you said it was on time, it was packaged very well and the product came in great condition perfect.
Use it daily, no problems at all.
