The angles don't quite match up, it's entirely coincidental. They were originally marketed as boxes to go under semi-trailers to store chains and such, which is why they open from the side not the top, then this seller figured out they could sell them as pickup truck tool boxes. From their...
Update on the tool boxes...
The seller is very hard to work with and seems inept. I ordered two boxes, they sent four. I left two in the box and contacted the seller who had Fed-Ex come pick the extra ones up.
Then I installed the remaining two boxes and found that the lock is not functional...
RTT? We want to convert the axle to match the tow vehicle hubs (once the tread on these new mil-spec tires needs replacing), and when that happens we'll blast the whole thing, powder coat the chassis, and paint/line the tub. Then it should be set for another 40 years of service. From the...

I did get a correct M37 spare and mount and have a couple of questions:
What's the correct...

Yesterday I purchased this M101A1 via...
