Tool chest security
So, how's everybody that has a tool chest in the bed of their trucks keeping them in the bed of their trucks? I had the tool chest bolted into the bed of my '70, but would rather not drill holes in the bed of the '08.
It fits pretty well in between the wheel wells and the front of the bed, so it won't move front to back, but it can shift side to side, and somebody could pick the whole thing up and carry it off. I'd rather not have either of those happen. BTW, it's the style of chest that sits down in the bed, not over the rails.

Re: Tool chest security
Are there any bed bolts under it that you can utilize?

Re: Tool checst security
ET, don't know how I didn't see your response. It's a good question. I'll ahve to pull the bed liner out and take a look. I'm thinking about scrapping the bedliner anyway, my dog hates it.

Re: Tool checst security
There are two tie down in the front of the bed. Bolt a small piece chain to the bed box and padlco both side to the toe downs... OR bolt a plate to either end that has a hole extend past the edges for a cable lock (like a bicycle lock) and run it to both tie downs....
