side mount bed toolbox suggestions?
looking for real world reviews from those that have side mounted toolboxes on their SD. i'm looking for this style, where it mounts flat on the bed rail. I don't want the style in the 2nd picture.
i know these can range from super cheap to super expensive. i would say maybe something in between? i don't want cheap crap that you can break into with a toothpick, but i don't need top of the line either, as i won't be putting power tools or anything expensive in them. even if i did get top of the line, i never feel comfortable putting those types of tools in outside mounted boxes. it would be more for things like straps, paint brushes, drywall stuff, things like that. i just want to free up the cab a bit and put things like that in the toolboxes rather than in the cab. i have a full rack that i will be installing as well, so pretty much going for a similar setup as the pic below, so i want toolboxes on each side of my 8ft bed. not sure if that means two 4 footers on each side, or 1 long 8ft box, etc.
not like this, i don't like how these take up bed space
thanks!! also, post pics if you'd like!
