It sits across your bed rails behind the cab and clamps down without a single hole drilled in the truck. It spans 61\" overall, holds 7.2ft³, and the tub that drops between your rails measures 50\" x 17\" x 11.75\". The low-profile lid keeps the box to 14.75\" tall overall, low enough to stay out of your rear-view sightline on most trucks and under many tonneau covers. The lid is UWS's patented RigidCore design, foam-filled so it does not bow or bind, with gas struts that lift it to a full 90 degrees and hold it there. A MicroSeal gasket runs the perimeter to keep dust and water out. Two keyed latches connected inside the box mean you can open it from whichever side of the truck you are standing on. Because this is the EC version, UWS packages it for parcel delivery rather than freight, so it comes to your door without a terminal pickup or a delivery window.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWhat's Included:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUWS 60\" crossover truck tool box, gloss black aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1 divider tray (the sliding tool tray)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 keys\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 rail pads\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 J-hooks, 3\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 washers, 1\/4\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e2 nuts, 1\/4\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUWS installation manual\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"embed-container\" style=\"position:relative;padding-bottom:56.25%;height:0;overflow:hidden;max-width:100%;\"\u003e\u003ciframe src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/DPxZ-LJY4PI\" style=\"position:absolute;top:0;left:0;width:100%;height:100%;\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e7.2ft³ of Lockable Storage\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe box measures 61\" x 20\" x 14.75\" overall and holds 7.2ft³. The tub itself is 50\" x 17\" x 11.75\", which is the space you actually load, and it is the figure to check against your longest tools. Capacity is UWS's own published figure for this model, not a category average.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePatented RigidCore Foam-Filled Lid\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe lid is not a hollow aluminum shell. UWS injects a solid foam core between two sheets of aluminum, which stiffens the whole panel so it does not bow in the middle, does not warp in the sun, and does not bind in the latches after a few hundred cycles. It is the difference you notice every time the lid closes squarely instead of needing a shove.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eExtra-Thick One-Piece Welded Aluminum Tub\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe tub is formed from a single sheet of 0.058\" extra-thick aluminum and welded, rather than riveted or folded from panels. There are no seams down the corners to leak or split, and aluminum will not rust out from the inside the way a painted steel box does once the coating is chipped.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGloss Black Powder Coat Over Aluminum\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe gloss black powder coat finish is applied over aluminum, so even where the coating eventually gets chipped there is no steel underneath to rust. Gloss black gives a deep, wet-looking shine that matches factory black trim and black wheels.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eStainless Steel Paddle Latches, Locking From Either Side\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTwo recessed stainless steel paddle latches with keyed locks, connected inside the box so it opens from the driver's side or the passenger's side. Recessing the latch into the box face means there is nothing sticking out to catch a hip or a cargo strap, and stainless means the lock still turns after a salt winter.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMicroSeal Gasket Around the Lid\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA closed-cell gasket runs the full perimeter of the opening and compresses when the lid shuts, which is what keeps dust, road spray and rain out of the box. UWS demonstrates it publicly by hitting a closed box with mud and then a pressure washer, and that video is linked on this page.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSelf-Opening Lid That Stops at 90 Degrees\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGas struts take the weight, so the lid lifts itself once the latches release and stays put at a full 90 degrees. That matters when your hands are full: you release the latch, the lid goes up, and it does not come back down on your knuckles while you are reaching in.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePackaged for Parcel Delivery, Not Freight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is the EC version of the box, which UWS packages specifically so it can ship by parcel carrier instead of on a freight pallet. In practice that means it comes to your door rather than to a terminal you have to drive to, and there is no appointment window to sit through. The box inside is the same box as the freight-only version; only the packaging differs.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eFitment \u0026amp; Compatibility\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"overflow-x:auto;margin:8px 0 4px;border:1px solid #e6e6e6;border-radius:8px;\"\u003e\u003ctable style=\"display:table;width:100%;margin:0;border-collapse:separate;border-spacing:0;border:none;\"\u003e\n\u003cthead\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"background:#ba232a;color:#ffffff;text-align:left;padding:12px 14px;font-weight:700;border:none;\"\u003eTruck class\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003cth style=\"background:#ba232a;color:#ffffff;text-align:left;padding:12px 14px;font-weight:700;border:none;\"\u003eFit\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/thead\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 14px;border:none;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;background:#ffffff;font-weight:600;\"\u003eCompact and mid-size trucks (Tacoma, Ranger, Colorado, Frontier)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 14px;border:none;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;background:#ffffff;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color:#b25e00;font-weight:700;\"\u003e●\u003c\/span\u003e Too wide, choose a shorter box\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 14px;border:none;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;background:#f7f7f7;font-weight:600;\"\u003eMid-size trucks with wider beds (Gladiator, Ridgeline)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 14px;border:none;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;background:#f7f7f7;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color:#1a7f37;font-weight:700;\"\u003e✓\u003c\/span\u003e Yes, comfortable fit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 14px;border:none;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;background:#ffffff;font-weight:600;\"\u003eFull-size half-ton trucks (F-150, Silverado 1500, Sierra 1500, Ram 1500, Tundra)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 14px;border:none;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;background:#ffffff;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color:#1a7f37;font-weight:700;\"\u003e✓\u003c\/span\u003e Yes, comfortable fit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 14px;border:none;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;background:#f7f7f7;font-weight:600;\"\u003eFull-size heavy duty trucks (F-250\/350, Silverado 2500\/3500, Ram 2500\/3500)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 14px;border:none;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;background:#f7f7f7;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color:#1a7f37;font-weight:700;\"\u003e✓\u003c\/span\u003e Yes, comfortable fit\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 14px;border:none;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;background:#ffffff;font-weight:600;\"\u003eTrailers, flatbeds and service bodies\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"padding:12px 14px;border:none;border-bottom:1px solid #ececec;background:#ffffff;\"\u003e\n\u003cspan style=\"color:#ba232a;font-weight:700;\"\u003e✗\u003c\/span\u003e No, this box is built to sit on pickup bed rails\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"background:#faf7f7;border-left:4px solid #ba232a;border-radius:0 8px 8px 0;padding:14px 16px;margin:12px 0;\"\u003e\u003cp style=\"margin:0;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFit guidance:\u003c\/strong\u003e This is a universal-fit crossover box, not a vehicle-specific kit, so measure before you order. The number that matters is the outside-to-outside width across your bed rails just behind the cab: this box is 61\" long overall and its mounting flanges rest on the rails, so your rail span needs to be a little under that figure. The tub that drops between your bed rails is 50\" long and 17\" wide, and that has to drop cleanly between the inner walls of the rails. The lid is the low-profile design, keeping the box to 14.75\" tall overall so it usually stays out of the rear-window sightline. Also check tonneau cover and rear-window clearance if you run either. UWS publishes a short video on measuring a bed for a crossover box, linked on this page. No year, make and model fitment is claimed.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eUWS Part Number:\u003c\/b\u003e EC10232\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eProduct Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Crossover tool box\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eMaterial:\u003c\/b\u003e Aluminum\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eFinish:\u003c\/b\u003e Gloss Black\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eStorage Capacity:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.2ft³\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eOverall Length:\u003c\/b\u003e 61\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eOverall Width:\u003c\/b\u003e 20\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eOverall Height:\u003c\/b\u003e 14.75\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTub Length:\u003c\/b\u003e 50\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTub Width:\u003c\/b\u003e 17\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTub Height:\u003c\/b\u003e 11.75\"\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eTub Style:\u003c\/b\u003e Standard\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eProfile:\u003c\/b\u003e Low Profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eLid Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Single Lid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eLatch Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paddle Handle\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eRail Option:\u003c\/b\u003e Without Rail\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eProduct Weight:\u003c\/b\u003e 42.8 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eShipping Weight:\u003c\/b\u003e 58.25 lb\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eShipping Method:\u003c\/b\u003e Parcel carrier, heavily packaged by UWS for parcel delivery\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eInstallation Difficulty:\u003c\/b\u003e Easy\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eUPC:\u003c\/b\u003e 672078081375\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eWarranty:\u003c\/b\u003e Limited lifetime warranty, one-year finish, one-year parts\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/b\u003e USA\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eInstallation\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eType:\u003c\/b\u003e No-drill clamp mount, the box sits on the bed rails and is clamped from underneath  ·  \u003cb\u003eTime:\u003c\/b\u003e About 20 to 30 minutes with a second person to lift the box  ·  \u003cb\u003eTools:\u003c\/b\u003e Ratchet and socket set, tape measure  ·  \u003cb\u003eDifficulty:\u003c\/b\u003e Easy, no drilling and no cutting\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLay the two supplied rail pads on the bed rails so the box does not sit metal-to-metal on your paint, set the box down centered front to back and side to side, then fit the two 3\" J-hooks from underneath with the 1\/4\" washers and nuts and draw them up evenly.

The company builds tool boxes, transfer tanks and chests for people who open them every working day, and the engineering choices reflect that: welded one-piece tubs instead of riveted panels, stainless steel latch hardware instead of plated steel, and a foam-filled lid instead of a hollow one.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eTwo of those choices are worth knowing by name. The patented RigidCore lid sandwiches a solid foam core between aluminum skins, so the lid stays flat and keeps latching squarely long after a hollow lid would have bowed in the middle. The MicroSeal gasket runs the full perimeter of the opening and is what keeps dust and water out. UWS is confident enough in the seal to publish a video of a closed box being hit with mud and then a pressure washer. UWS builds these boxes in Florida: the company's own product copy for this model says it is designed, fabricated and welded there, and the carton is marked Assembled in USA.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis particular listing is from the UWS EC series, which is the same box packaged so it can travel by parcel carrier rather than freight.
