flatbed guys - toolbox options that work with a topper?

Hey guys,

I've got a flatbed that needs topmount boxes for the sides, and I'd like to see what's out there.

I'd like to find something about 13" high - that's about the height from the current bed to where a stock bed rail would sit. I'd like to put a topper on top of those boxes eventually to camp in etc. Northern Tool has a 72" "railtop" box, but i can't find a photo of the mounting system and whether it could as easily be top mounted. Been doing the google search thing for a while now and am coming up empty..

Charlie

Any of the regular boxes made for a flatbed should work. You can then either weld them on, put a piece of angle for support and weld, or bolt to the flatbed through the bottom.

Weatherguard makes a few different styles/levels of boxes that are pretty popular...
