It will blend even better when I get some plastic paint and at the very least paint that red handle black or gray. I might even paint the whole thing one color.Cool.. the color even sorta blends.
I've thought of using a 150qt. cooler back there.. ain't too "portable" when it's loaded with gear n' beer.
not waterproof. the handles/latched leak. i have the 8gal in the back of my truck and drilled a couple of holes in the low spots to allow the little bit of water that gets in there to drain.Great idea!

Home Depot sells a spring loaded nut that is made to hold conduit and other hangers/items to a similar styled track if you ever have the need for an alternate choice to the washers.Yes it sits just below the rim. Your cover should fit no problem. I posted the listed demensions in an earlier post. It sits flat and level. I used 3/8 " x 2" bolts. 1/2" fender washers fit in the utilitrac. I used 1 per side then used a flat piece of metal to hold it down. I personally had some extra pieces of utilitrac that i got when I bought a used bed extender
Have it sprayed with the bed liner stuff so it would match perfectly.44.75 x 20.937 x 17.687 The 48 gallon size. Found it at WalMart.

Do you have any pictures? A link to the company?Just putting this out there. I have a similar set-up.
I used the SMART box that is sold in the auto department of WalMart. It has 4 flat feet that just happened to line up directly with the bottom utilitrac. I used 4 spring nuts, 4 bolts/washers to bolt it down. It also have a lock option and is waterproof. It is also very easy to remove if needed.
The height is also a good thing since it is just under the bed rails. I think the box ended up costing 50 bucks and then 5 in hardware and 30 mins to align everything and drill. Its a very cheap storage solution.
I used mine for a road trip from FL to NC and back over the holidays and my luggage was fine. I also reloaded it with a ton of rocks for the ride back and it held up fine (luggage in the back seat since there was no presents anymore).
