Low profile tool box and fiver
Looking to put a tool box in the truck. previously I had a box from an S-10 box on welded up brackets that sat flush with the rails. So now I'm considering a over rail low profile box that sits 3" ...

I've had a 3" over the rail toolbox for years - with a regular bed - and have not had any issues backing into uneven ground. I should say that level, the fiver rests about 7" above the rails and has a curved nose. With your long bed and if your fiver rests high enough above the rails, I think you should be fine.
Then there is that ONE time!
Hey I saw a guy recently with 3" of bed clearance and he said he has never had a problem.
Well there is a "one time" for almost everything... but I've never even come close with this setup :-) . And like someone else stated, it's great having the space having underneath the box.
Bottom line it's nice to have options. I personally want a huge tool box and don't use my Dually for anything but towing or just driving around.
