I’ve got a gloss black Weatherguard low profile box on my truck. It leaves around 9 1/2 inches under the box. It also comes in gloss black and bright aluminum. WG is a bit pricey but you get what you pay for. They do make a less costly line called Defender, but I see more complaints about those compared to the top line WG boxes.

It's cheap, but I bought and modified a trailer tool box from Tractor Supply Company. I like the chamfered corners so I can still fit long boards and such diagonally in the bed. I added handles so I can handle it if I ever need to remove it to make room for a large job, and added side shackles to anchor it laterally.

It is cheap though. The original latch/lock seen here already broke, rendering the latch useless. I had to drill it out and install a new aftermarket latch which is actually better than the original. It's not super secure, but would probably deter the casual thief of opportunity. My 12 V air compressor is about the most expensive thing I keep in there.

I did a Weatherguard (I removed the logos) as well:

I also added a roll up cover (I don't think they make the cover anymore) love being able to cover the bed AND have a toolbox:

I have a Pelican box, fits completely inside the bed, used ratchet straps and can close the tonneau cover.

Can't find a picture right now.

I like the one Mopar offers that slides front and rear but is only available in a bring polished finish, I want black.
Is that what you show in Post #1? Looks like it would fit under mu tonneau cover.
I was unaware one existed from MOPAR. Any closer detailed Pic's? I think I like it.
