Tool Box in Tundra (Husky)

[mmarlatt]

Anyone have a Husky, the Home Depot brand, tool box in the back of their Tundra? I like the low profile one they list for full size trucks, but it doesn't give the dimensions anywhere on the home depot or husky website.

How do you like yours? Any issues with it?

Thanks in advance for all the great replies.

I had a husky box in my 03 tacoma and first had problems with the locks becoming difficult to get the key in and turn. Then after a few months if I hit a bump hard enough the lid would pop open, even with the box locked. When I got my tundra I wanted a weather guard brand but could'nt find one. I ended up getting a kobalt box which is made by Better Built for the tundra and couldn't be happier.

The box I have on my Tundra first rode around on the T100 and then the f150 before I put it on this truck, so I cant help on the husky, but one thing to consider is the style of the lid, either full width or opening on either end. I have the one that opens on either end, its convenient for small stuff, but if for some reason you carry larger items like a contractors level, then the full width lid is better.

Husky is alright, not top of the line but a decent box. I had one for 13 years on my Nissan truck. I bought a Better-Built for my F-150 then put it on my Tundra. Whatever you get I suggest that you buy some rubber weatherstripping for under the lid to seal it. The stuff that comes from the factory now days just isn't very watertight.

T-100 below is right, make sure you think ahead on what type of lid you get. I got the Gull Wing design (opens either end) and I like it. Although I don't carry 4' levels in there.

Whatever you do don't buy a plastic box, I am yet to see one that didn't sag in the middle over time.

It appears that the Husly toolboxes at the Home Depot are manufactured by Contico. The Home Depot also sells the Contico Tradesman brand.

You might want to check out Tractor Supply if you have one. They have a large assortment of tool boxes. I bought one in their brand really a DEE zee and it is low profile and fits great. Good luck.

What about Kobalt from Lowes, they seem to look about the same as the Husky brand?
