Specs:
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.

Today we're taking a look at the UWS truck bed tool box. Now, this is custom fit for some applications, so to ensure that this is the fit for your vehicle, you can use the vehicle fit guide, which is located at etrailer.com.This is a cross-over, saddle-style toolbox that hangs from the truck bed rails behind the cab. It's a nice low-profile design, makes it easier to see out of your back window. It's an aluminum construction, which is very strong and durable. Has fully welded seams, and this unit is guaranteed not to rust.We have heavy duty, stainless steel latches, one on each side. So passenger side, drivers side.
The one on the drivers side has a lock on it.Internally, we have a connecting rod, try to spin this so you can see that. So located right here there's a connecting rod on those latches, and we have the enclosure, which prevents the box contents from bending or jamming the locking system.It has a black powder coated finish on it, which gives it a great look. It's a really nice design, and increases the amount of protection added to the box.The beveled lid features the patented foam-filled design, so this is a foam-filled lid, which provides insulation and protection from the elements. It's a very strong lid, it's not gonna collapse, it's not gonna bend, it's not gonna break. The structural foam reinforces the shape and ultimate strength of the lid.It also has a dust barrier to protect the contents from the elements.I like this also because one latch can open the box all the way.
You do not have to disengage both latches, so whatever side of the vehicle's convenient for you.It has the heavy-duty gas cylinders, one on each side, which helps to lift the lid and hold it open a full 90 degrees. And on the back side of the unit we do have the full length piano hinge, right underneath, so it is hidden out of the way. But that is the full length of the box.Also, internally it has the sliding tool tray. So it's got this tray that slides from there to there. It comes with a hardware kit, so you get the J-bolt hardware that's included to secure it to the bed rails, and you get two keys for the locks, so that way you can secure whatever it is you have in the box.
That lid . excuse me, that tray can easily be removed if desired.Also on the sides, which you can see over here, located right here we have a little shelf with holes drilled in it, and that's great for holding items such as screwdrivers and similar products. So we have that on this side, and we also have it on this side in the box.It comes with some foam adhesive. This would go under the lip and on top of your bed rail. Provides a little bit of cushion in there.Now, when it comes to the dimensions, overall length is 58 inches long.
Width is 19 and a quarter. Height is 13 and a half. When calculating whether or not this is gonna work for you, you wanna add about one inch to the dimensions I mentioned to figure clearance for the lid.Capacity is 5.2 cubic feet of usable space. I took a measurement from this point here to this point here and got a measurement of 47 and three-quarter inches, and from back to front, not including the shelf that this tray sits on, just that bottom cavity area, that's about 16 and three-quarter inches.The unit sits two inches above your truck bed rails. Again, it comes with two keys. It is lockable. Product's made in the USA and covered with a limited lifetime warranty.That's gonna do it for today's look at the UWS truck bed tool box.

Other than the weather stripping falling off the lid, the box still looks and works like new. The lid opens and shuts with ease and the locking mechanism still functions perfectly.

Toolbox is still holding strong, even after a snowy Idaho winter. I would recommend to upgrade the seal as I did find some snow on the inside from the windsnow in Idaho.

I have owned this UWS took box for over a year now hard to believe it has been that long. The tool box is holding up good no problems just tightened the j-hooks was all I drive on bumpy roads here in Idaho so it handles the snow rain and dust nothing gets inside its dry as a bone. I can even stand on toolbox if I need to its that sturdy. This fits my 2002 Ford Ranger Stepside even though it says doesnt fit my bed is not as wide as normal rangers they need to change that in will this item fit your truck yes it does. The paint is holding up and the locking mechanism no problems there. People notice it but when they here the price they buy cheaper tool boxes but in my opinion you get what you pay for. I give this box 5 stars for durability and quality you will not be disappointed if you purchase a UWS toolbox.
