Question:
How far does this box protrude above the bed? I need something that is flush as I tow a fifth wheel and need clearance.

It's possible the UWS Truck Bed Fender Well Toolbox with Drawers # UWS01626 could be flush or below the top of your truck's bed rails but you'd need to measure to be sure. This overall is 23-1/4 inches tall so if your bed rails are that height or taller this would be flush. Keep in mind that for optimal clearance between a fifth wheel trailer overhang and bed rails of a truck is between 4-6 inches as a minimum. So lets say you had 8 inches now and this box was 2 inches above your bed rail height you'd still have 6 inches of clearance.
