Default Truck Boxes/Tool Boxes?

Hey guys,

I'm looking to get a box for my '89 regular cab with a long bed. I just want something to put guns in for hunting or things that can't get wet- just to have some dry storage.

Can you guys recommend a box? I'm looking for something cheap... doesn't have to be pretty!

Thanks much in advance!

Bought a used Delta box off Craigslist last summer for $75 bucks. Rain doesn't get in, and the weatherstrip is shot in a couple places, but still water tight from rain and car washes. And the lock works.

So my advice is look at craigslist, you could save a lot of money and get something in great shape

^^ x2. I got a kobalt box last November, It works great! Used L-Brackets into the factory bedliner to keep from drilling into the bed of my truck!
