Ideas for tool box

Well I was thinking about getting rid of the tool box on my truck and getting a tonneau cover for it. I was wondering how this sounded... I was gonna take some 16 gauge steel and have my buddy fabricate a little box like thing over the wheelwells along the inside of the bed. Can anyone draw up something on a computer program for an idea?

just buy my side mount and mod it to what you need

 

No, I want it for inside the bed. Not on top of the rails.

 

it doesnt sit on the rails, it sits in the bed and sits in the back of the bed and the front goes over the wheel well, just need to cut it so it doesnt sit as high, and it has a door on the bottom that has 3 sliding trays

 

Nah, I have another idea

 

okay im just saying its close to your idea

 

Sorta lol I just want a steel box on one side that goes up the side of the bed 2/3 of the way

 

this is diamond plated, that goes from the end of the bed to the other side of the wheel well and about 1 to 1 and half feet wide, if you cut it so its lower then the bed and put the cover back on it it would work nicely

 

I don't need it diamond plated. Too shiny. And I'm not putting a lid on it. I just need a little thing to go along the side to throw tools in and have easy access. I'm not even looking to buy one. Looking to make it. I asked for a computer design.

 

i know, im just seeing if you wanted it

 

I would have asked if I did man. Sorry

 

get a plastic truck box at wall mart for $20. that's what i'm using right now because i have the cap on.

 

I can get the metal for free and fabricate it for free too. I just want a computer design of something I might be looking for... Sorry if I seem a bit pissy. People are putting me in a bad mood today.

 

so your wanting a box on or next to the wheel well?

 

Sorta. I want one a little higher, that goes from the tailgate and about halfway over the wheelwell on one side.

 

so your looking for something like a side mount tool box but half the size, kinda

 

Yeah, and can bolt to the inside of the bed. I'd love a blueprint kinda like thing for it.

 

all id have to do is measure mine and subtract it so its smaller, then make some prints for you

 

Awesome. Thanks man

 

ill do it tomorow when i have sun light
