- Check all parts against the parts list and look over the mounting area to make sure there is room for the box.
- Set the box on the flat surface where it will mount to confirm the fit. The box has no predrilled holes; drill as close to the outside edges of the box as possible.

- Set the box back in position and mark the drilled hole pattern onto the mounting surface.
- Remove the box and drill four 3/8" holes at the marks, following the truck maker's shop manual for drilling.
