Tool box size??
I have been looking for a used aluminum tool box for my 94 extra cab. Does anyone know the dimensions that I would need? I have come across a few but not sure if they will fit. I am not around my truck at the moment, so if anyone can help me out that would be great!

Around 57 inches sounds right. Any from a mid size truck will fit. Picked mine up from a metal recycling place.

Kobalt is a good brand.. Quality is reaching into Craftsman territory for a little better price. A friend of mine has a Kobalt low profile box on his Frontier and it looks/fits great.

I thought lowes only carried full size tool boxes. I would rather find one on craigslist if I could! But I might have to bite the bullet and buy a new one.

I have a black toolbox it fits in side the bed but it sticks up about 4 inches above the sides, so not exactly a stealthy box. Shipping would be an arm and a leg though. Currently have it mounted to my trailer.

I'm in Iowa. I don't know that I actually want to sell it just letting you know. I paid a wopping $50 for it and it fits perfect on my 74 LUV autocross trailer. I can get pics of it in the morning when it's light out. It would probably cost more than a new one would shipping wise. I recommend scouring CL and ebay for boxes close to you. I lucked out cuz I check both everyday for random stuff. Found some awesome deals just waiting and lurking on stuff.

If you have a plastic bedliner, a standard 20" wide toolbox may be an issue. I had to trim the corners off mine. I'm planning on taking to a friend who has an aluminum welder to put a patch on the part I cut out. I got too good of a deal not to use it!
Fits pretty snug now:
