HELP! Tool Box and Headache Rack

I bought my boyfriend a Husky Headache Rack for Christmas, he tried to install it today but found that it will not work with the ProTech tool box...the distance between the two brackets on the Headache Rack is too short...71 inches and the tool box is 74 inches.

Has anyone experienced this problem and corrected it?

Feedback much appreciated!

Is the Pro-Tech toolbox an "Inbed" or "Cross-Body" style? The "Inbed" style mounts to the floor of the truck bed. The "Cross-Body" style mounts to the rails of the truck bed. If you have the "Inbed" style, then I would say that you have the incorrect rack from Husky. If you have the "Cross-Body" style, then you will be required to mount the toolbox on top of the rack, assuming you have the correct rack.

Can you return the Husky rack? If yes, then you may want to consider purchasing one of the Pro-Tech racks for compatbility.
