Give your work truck a classic, high-visibility look with the Weather Guard 117-0-04" bright aluminum diamond plate. Its clear ARMOR TUF powder coat lets the raw diamond plate shine through while sealing the aluminum against corrosion, fading and road salt. If you want the traditional, high-visibility look most buyers picture on a work truck, bright aluminum is the go-to choice. Scratches and swirl marks also tend to blend into the diamond plate instead of standing out. This full-size, extra-wide aluminum saddle box straddles the top bed rails behind the cab and offers 15.5ft³ of secured, weather-sealed storage while staying lighter than a comparable steel box. A five-piece welded aluminum diamond-plate body with a reinforced C-channel front keeps it strong yet light, and a full-perimeter D-shaped weather seal locks out rain and dust.
What's Included:
117 Series full-size extra-wide aluminum crossover (saddle) tool box in bright aluminum
1Key UltraLock push-button locks, keyed alike
Under-rail mounting clamps and hardware for a no-drill install
Welded Aluminum Diamond-Plate Build A five-piece welded aluminum diamond-plate body with a reinforced C-channel front panel keeps this box strong yet light. It resists jobsite abuse and road salt without adding the weight of a steel box. This one is finished in clear ARMOR TUF powder coat over bright aluminum diamond plate.
Bright Aluminum Clear ARMOR TUF Finish A clear ARMOR TUF powder coat protects the raw aluminum diamond plate while keeping that bright, traditional work-truck look. It resists corrosion, road salt and fading without hiding the diamond-plate texture.
1Key UltraLock Security Tamper-resistant push-button locks sit recessed when locked, giving a quick visual cue your gear is secured. The 1Key UltraLock system lets you code multiple boxes on a truck, or a whole fleet, to a single key.
Full-Perimeter Weather Seal A memory-resistant D-shaped, multi-ridge weather strip runs the entire lid perimeter to keep rain, dust and debris off your tools, so your gear stays dry and ready in any weather.
Reinforced Lid With Gas Struts Gas struts hold the reinforced lid open near 90 degrees for easy one-handed access, and welded strut shields protect them from damage. The steel-reinforced lid resists flex and stands up to daily use.
Saddle Fit Across The Bed The box straddles the top bed rails behind the cab, keeping your bed floor open for sheet goods and cargo. Enhanced tie-down buckles and 12V PowerSync-ready access round out a box built for working trucks.
Reinforced Body, Automotive-Grade Hardware Weather Guard specifies a five-piece welded body for the 117-0-04, with a C-channel reinforced front panel and a heavy-duty C-channel reinforced lid, so the box stays square when it is loaded and when someone stands on the lid. The latch is an automotive dual-stage rotary mechanism, the same style a truck door uses, so it pulls the lid down onto the seal instead of relying on a friction catch. A welded gas strut shield keeps loose tools from knocking the strut mount out of line. The D-shaped ribbed weather strip is memory resistant, so it springs back after years of closing rather than taking a set and letting water track in.
Fit guidance: Crossover, or saddle, boxes mount across the truck bed on top of the two bed rails just behind the cab, so the box straddles the bed and leaves the bed floor open. At about 72" wide this size fits standard-width full-size pickups, and because it sits on the rails rather than the bed floor it works with short, standard and long beds on those trucks. This is an extra-wide box, so it needs a full-width full-size bed and will reduce side-to-side reach past the box. Always measure your bed rail width and check clearance behind the cab before ordering. It is not designed for compact or mid-size trucks.
Type: Saddle mount across the top bed rails, clamp-in with no drilling · Time: About 20 to 30 minutes · Tools: Socket or wrench set and a tape measure; no drill needed with the included under-rail clamps · Difficulty: Easy, best done with two people for the lift
Set the box across the two bed rails behind the cab and center it left to right. Hook the included clamps under each bed rail and tighten the hardware evenly so the box sits flat and the lid seals all the way around. Because the box is wide, have a second person help lift and hold it while you clamp it down. Follow the Weather Guard installation instructions for exact clamp placement and torque.

Weather Guard's official hardware video zooms in on the clamp and bolt kit that secures its truck boxes to the bed rails without drilling. It is a helpful close-up companion to the full box install and shows how the mounting brackets hook under the rail lip and tighten down. Use it alongside the printed instructions that ship with the box.
How the 1Key UltraLock System Works
A step-by-step look from Weather Guard at what the 1Key UltraLock actually does: how the cylinder accepts a new code, why the red push button retracts when the box is locked, and how the latch pulls the lid down against the seal. Worth two minutes before you set the box up.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers on specs, fit and support
Will the 117-0-04 fit my truck?
It is a full-size extra-wide crossover, or saddle, box that mounts across the top bed rails behind the cab, so it fits full-size pickups such as the F-150, Silverado and Sierra 1500 through 3500, Ram 1500 through 3500, Tundra and Titan. It needs about 72" of rail-to-rail width. Measure your bed rails and check clearance behind the cab first, and note it is not designed for compact or mid-size trucks.
Does it require drilling to install?
No. The box ships with under-rail clamps and hardware, so it mounts without drilling into your truck. Most installs take about 20 to 30 minutes and go easiest with two people to lift and hold the box while you clamp it down.
How secure is this Weather Guard box?
It uses the Weather Guard 1Key UltraLock system with tamper-resistant push-button locks that sit recessed when locked, so you get a quick visual cue your gear is secured. The 1Key design also lets you code multiple boxes on a truck or a whole fleet to a single key.
How does the bright aluminum hold up outdoors?
Very well. The aluminum body will not rust like steel, and the clear ARMOR TUF coating plus the full-perimeter D-shaped weather seal keep water, salt and dust out while protecting the finish. A rinse and a wipe keep the diamond plate bright.
Does the clear aluminum finish need much upkeep?
Not really. The clear ARMOR TUF powder coat seals the aluminum, so it will not rust like bare steel and it wipes clean with mild soap and water. The bright diamond plate hides light scuffs well and keeps its look with basic care.
What is it made of and how big is it?
It is built from welded aluminum diamond plate with a clear ARMOR TUF powder coat over bright aluminum diamond plate. The exterior measures 72"L x 27-1/2"W x 18-1/2"H with 15.5ft³ of storage, and it ships at about 102 lb, so it is strong yet lighter than a comparable steel box.

Awesome room and quality
So far this is a great box. Only issue is that for my 2001 Dodge Ram 1500, is that it touches the wheel wells, so I had to put a spacer in to raise it up. My spacer is 3/4", but only needed about 1/4'-3/8". I might try and find a thinner spacer to maximize rear window view. In order to close it completely to latch both sides you do need to walk around and "click" it, or be in the bed to latch both side completely for a weathertight seal. Everything else is sooo smooth, and durable.

Great, well built toolbox! I’m in the land clearing and site work business, so I carry as many tools that I might need as I can. My old, standard sized toolbox allowed for a lot of it, but it was so disorganized and cluttered that it took me longer to find something than it did to fix it. This toolbox resolved that issue for me and allows me to carry it all and in an organized way. I love it!

Tough Tool Box
Let me tell y’all! This is one tough toolbox! I have had mine for 18 years. It is certainly well built. I did have to replace the struts at 15 years. I had it on my 2002 F250 Super Duty when I was clipped from behind and spun out and rolled over 3 times! The toolbox remained intact and closed with 400lbs of tools in it. The hook bolt anchors did break and release the toolbox. And even after the truck rolled on the toolbox it remained essentially undamaged.

Disappointed
117-52-02 on a 2017 F-350. Been using Weatherguard products for decades and very disappointed in this box. As other reviews have said you have to get into the bed and push this lid from the center to get this box to positively latch on both sides. Even with a 3rd step on my truck and stretching acoss the box and slamming it will not close the opposite latch.

Impressive - Well Built - Roomy easy Installation
Wide-sturdy- plenty of room for most of the tools needed on our jobs. If it doesn’t fit - it can ride in the bed of the pick up. The welds were some of the best we found on a toolbox. The only issues are: every once in awhile the lid wants to be a pain. I would suggest more braces in the lid to sturdy it up for easier closing and it could use a 2nd slide drawer.

I bought this on sale so I got a great deal on the largest weatherguard truck box. Quality is so much better than Husky truck boxes. Only complaint is that the draw bolts are really tough to ratchet down. My shoulder is still sore two weeks later. due to the extreme angle you have to twist your body in order to reach inside to hold td he clip up against the body rail.
