Question:

Hi, Ive read the customer review stating they fit this Deezee utility chest in their truck bed with a folding bed cover. What are the chances this chest will work in a 2018 GMC Sierra 2500 with a short bed under a Bakflip MX4 cover? Im using the Andersen ultimate 5th wheel hitch, so I only have about 21inch from the front of the bed to the hitch. I want to be able to access the utility chest with the Bakflip MX4 folded all the way up against the rear window. If this combo wont work, do you have any other options for my setup?

I have an answer for you. The DeeZee Red Label Truck Bed Tool Box - Utility Chest Style - Aluminum - 8 Cu Ft - Silver # DZ8546 does not fit your 2018 GMC Sierra 2500 with a 6-1/2 foot bed.

However, for a 100% definite combination of the BAKFlip MX4 Hard Tonneau Cover - Folding - Aluminum - Matte Finish # BAK48121 and a tool box, I recommend using the MX4 with the BAKBox 2 Collapsible Truck Bed Toolbox # BAK92120. It clamps directly onto the bed rails so you do not have to worry about drilling into the bed of your truck. You will be able to access the BAKBox 2 with the MX4 folded against your rear window. Also, as far as your hitch, since the BAKBox 2 only measures 10" wide, you have plenty of room.

I went ahead and attached a demo video of both the tool box and the tonneau for you to check out.
