Paul knows what's up.

I'd personally use bolts and flat washers.

WTF. Doesn't anybody know what a drill and bit are for? They don't come predrilled due to different bed side heights and bed frame widths.

You're gonna need some 3-in-1 oil and some gauze pads.

Drill holes where you want them.  Bolt it.  Use RTV (on the inside of fender washers) to seal it.  

I assume this one doesn't have any pre drilled holes?  That's so you can mount it yourself without a bunch of extra holes.  It's a good thing.  

ETA:  Or use rubber washers as gaskets between the box and fender washers if you want.

Some of you are pretty funny.  I actually do know how to use a drill.

I asked because sometimes they make a specific MOUNT for tool boxes................... get this............. that DON'T require drilling!

I couldn't find one for this box.


Thanks for the replies.  Guess it's time to dig out the drill bits.
