- jffnkrnExplorerwe have a tool box fuel tank combo and enjoy the extra fuel capacity and of course just the right amount of storage for the tools and extra things i need to keep in there. it will set you back about $1500 with a pump. but it is sure nice to be able to take off the beaten path trips without back tracking and also buy at a lesser per gallon cost. OH sorry, mine sits below the bed rails also so clearance is not an issue. Good Luck & Be Safe ! ! !
- dawzieExplorerTractor supply has a nice alum. diamond plate front and rear box. They fit perfect in my short bed duramax
- Tango__AE7UIExplorerBefore we bought our fifth wheel, we had a slide in 9-1/2' truck camper.
With the camper loaded there is of course zero storage available.
I had a low side service body installed replacing the 8 foot pick up bed.
I really like the extra storage even with the fifth wheel.
I do have to watch turning too sharply so the king pin assembly doesn't hit the service body.
A high sided body will not clear. - rhagfoExplorer IIIWe have a below the rails tool box, and a roll up Tonneau cover for when not towing.
- Cummins12V98Explorer IIIThis is NOT cheap but very nice! 30" front to back. Never exceed the top of bed height.
Highly advise the hitch also. - CdaddyExplorerThanks for all the advice. Under rails it is

Thanks, 1Adam12, was going to buy one, never thought of it blocking my view - DReisingerExplorerThanks, 1Adam12, was going to buy one, never thought of it blocking my view
- garyp4951Explorer IIIUnder the rail looks cleaner, but you do loose some floor room. UWS makes some good boxes.
- stickdogExplorerI can just see the hitch in the rear view mirror so I got an under the bed rail box. Our truck is just for towing.
