For a low-key, stealth look, the Weather Guard 117-52-04 comes in a textured matte black ARMOR TUF finish that kills glare and hides fingerprints, dust and light scratches. It is the finish to choose if you want your gear locked down without drawing attention. It is the pick for anyone who wants a tactical, low-shine look that hides marks and still wipes clean fast. The flat, non-reflective surface also cuts down on the sun glare that bounces off a bright bed. 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 matte black
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 textured matte black ARMOR TUF powder coat.
Textured Matte Black ARMOR TUF Finish A textured matte black ARMOR TUF powder coat gives a low-glare, blacked-out look that hides fingerprints, dust and light scratches better than a glossy coat. It is the stealth choice for a clean, understated truck.
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 117-52-04, 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.

Frequently Asked Questions
Straight answers on specs, fit and support
Will the 117-52-04 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.
Will the matte black finish fade or stain in the weather?
No. The textured matte black ARMOR TUF coating is built to resist UV fading and corrosion, and the full-perimeter D-shaped weather seal keeps rain and dust out. Its low-sheen texture also helps hide water spots and road grime between washes.
Is the matte black finish good at hiding marks?
Yes. The textured matte black ARMOR TUF coating is designed to diffuse light, so fingerprints, dust and minor scuffs are far less visible than on a bright or gloss finish. It gives the box a durable, low-maintenance stealth look.
What is it made of and how big is it?
It is built from welded aluminum diamond plate with a textured matte black ARMOR TUF powder coat. 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.

Heavy duty
I bought this extra white heavy duty toolbox one month ago it has been a great asset to my lawn care company the only thing that sucks is the hold down bolts and cleats, the provided Bolt will not tread properly into the cleat, I got in contact with the weatherguard and they had no problem sending me a new Which were also defective as well. So if you buy this box make sure you buy the hold down cleats from someone else. I would definitely buy this box again.

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.

Indestructible toolbox
I bought this toolbox going on four years ago. About three years ago I had a major rollover accident that resulted in a few broken vertebrae. In the accident this toolbox got thrown from the truck at substantial speeds and some how miraculously managed to remain closed and locked with my few thousand dollars of tools inside and only received one large dent in a crease on the lid and a couple broken spot welds on the inside of the lid. I still use that same toolbox to this day. I am a carpenter so it gets daily abuse and still functions properly. From that day I became a die-hard Weather Guard fan and refuse to purchase any other toolbox.

Looks Great! Tons of Space!
I have a short bed Ram 1500 and can't fit a deep box, but wanted more secure storage space. This Weatherguard Extra-Wide is amazing! The locks are fantastic and is probably one of the best features of the box. My truck is brand new and I run it through the car wash regularly. So far I haven't found any water / moisture inside the box. My only complaint, if you want to call it that, is that I couldn't mount the box with the hardware provided. My bed was too narrow by about an inch. The precut holes in the box were fine, but I had to go purchase some basic J Hook bolts to get it to fit.

Best Bang for the Buck!!
This is my second Weatherguard box. Biggest mistake I ever made was leaving my first on the vehicle I sold. These boxes are well made and will provide years of service with proper care and maintenance. The locking system on these boxes is great and the latches will keep the lid in place, unlike a cheaper box I purchased in lieu of this one. That box has been relegated to shop duty due to the lid constantly coming unlatched. That is something you will not have to worry about with the Weatherguard. The box is pricey, but you get what you pay for and in the end you will only have to purchase one of these!!! Unless of course you have two trucks needing toolboxes, and believe me once you've used this box the desire to purchase a cheaper or alternate brand will completely vanish. FIVE STARS for this Tool Box!!

Extra space!
I have always wanted a bigger tool box so I could open smaller tool box drawers, without taking them out every time. This toolbox is great. It leaves allot of room under the box in the truck bed as well. You can fit 10 or more sheets of plywood under it and still close tail gate.

Installation was straightforward, but not all that easy. You have to slam the lid to close it. However the size allows me to carry large items in the relative security of the box that I would have either had to put in the bed or place inside the cab.
