Gap behind toolbox?

ron mexico75 · December 18, 2018

Was wondering if any of you guys on here have a gap between the back of your toolbox and where it pushes up against the bulkhead underneath the cab window? I have a set up with a tonneau cover made to be installed with a toolbox but have run into an issue where there is a space between the back of the toolbox and the front wall of the bed. Probably about an inch wide.

I installed my toolbox almost a year ago and just got this tonneau cover back in the summertime. I’m wondering if I didn’t push the toolbox up far enough afraid that the lid might hit the back of the truck? Do you guys have a gap in between the toolbox and the wall of the bed behind the cab window?

I tried rigging up some auto and marine weatherstripping but it still leaks more than I want it to. I’m posting pics so you can see what I’m talking about. Thanks

Anyone with a toolbox? Can you see if there is a gap that goes down to the bed or is it even with the edge of the bed?

Just don’t want to take apart my set up to find out the way I have it is correct.

I had a tool box but removed it some time ago. I had mine forward a bit as the lid would come up and hit my head ache rack. I will very on how thick the lid is on the tool box.

Thanks man. Yeah I think I “should” be able to move it up a hair. I think I was just being very conscious when installing last year.

Ya, just leave the lid up when going forward to verify you clear the cab, should be ok with a little farther into the bed.
