Weather Guard 165 Lo-Side Truck Tool Box, 87" Gloss Black Steel (165-5-04)

Keep tools locked down and off the bed floor with the Weather Guard 165-5-04 lo-side truck tool box. This 87" box wears a gloss black ARMOR TUF finish over welded steel. Gloss black over steel gives you a blacked-out look with the extra strength and weight that only a steel box brings. It mounts on top of one bed side rail so it rides low, preserves your rear visibility and leaves the bed floor open for sheet goods and cargo, and it locks down 7.0ft³ of weather-sealed storage behind the tamper-resistant 1Key UltraLock push-button lock.

What's Included:

• 165 Series 87" Lo-Side steel truck tool box in gloss black
• 1Key UltraLock keyed cylinder with recessed red push-button latch
• Under-rail mounting clamps and hardware for a no-drill install
• Gas strut for controlled lid lift
• Removable tray
• Full-perimeter weather seal, pre-installed
• Drain plug
• Weather Guard installation instructions

Features

87" of Secure Side-Rail Storage
At 87" long the 165-5-04 runs along one bed side rail and gives you 7.0ft³ of lockable, organized storage while keeping the rest of the bed floor clear. It swallows long levels, pipe and power tools that will not fit a shorter box.

Gloss Black Steel Finish
A Gloss Black ARMOR TUF powder coat covers the welded steel body to fight rust, salt and UV fade while giving the box a deep, blacked-out shine. Steel adds strength and heft for the toughest jobsites, so it takes abuse a lighter box might not.

Blacked-Out Strength
Gloss black over welded steel pairs a deep, blacked-out look with real heft, so it fits a blacked-out truck while standing up to the roughest use. It is the pick when you want steel toughness and a dark finish together.

Organized With a Removable Tray
A removable tray rides up top for fasteners and hand tools while longer items stow below, so your kit stays sorted instead of sliding around the box. It lifts out when you need the full depth for bigger gear.

1Key UltraLock Security
A tamper-resistant lock pairs a keyed cylinder with a recessed red push-button that sits flush when locked, giving you a quick visual cue your gear is secured. The 1Key system lets you code multiple boxes on a truck or a whole fleet to one key.

Enhanced Tie-Downs and 12V Access
Enhanced tie-down buckles give extra clearance for universal or multiple straps so you can lash cargo down on the lid, and a 12V access point supports electrical upfits when you add them.

Reinforced Body, Automotive-Grade Hardware
Weather Guard specifies a heavy-duty welded body for the 165-5-04, 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.

Installation

Type: Side-rail mount, 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 because of the length

Set the box on top of one bed side rail and position it front to back, then hook the included clamps under the rail lip and tighten the hardware evenly so the box sits flat and the lid seals. Because the box is long, have a second person help lift and steady it while you clamp it down. Follow the Weather Guard installation instructions for exact clamp placement and torque.
