Default Just a sugesstion for people with tool boxes

I'm taking a long trip to my deer lease this weekend and I'm bringing my four wheeler, since i got the toolbox i have to put the tailgate down. so I got tired of trying to hook the tie downs on the hooks underneath the toolbox and trying to strap it down tightly so I got an idea. I went to Home Depot and bought some bolts with eye hooks on them and drilled two holes above the bed rails into the box so it would be out of the way from other stuff that goes in to the bed. i put the nuts, washers and lock washers on the outside and inside of the box. I was going to post pictures of this project but its not allowing me to so this is what I bought to do the project ill post pictures when I can

2 bolts with eye hooks (3/8 inch x 8 inches)

2 nuts, washers and lock washers (3/8 inch)

1 Milwaukee thunderbolt black oxide drill bit, I recommend this one it's 5 or 6 dollars over the rigid brand which was 12 and you will need a drill (3/8 size bit and 3/8 drill)
