question about a bed tool box

does anyone know if someone makes a toolbox that will fit inside the bed of a flareside? like up against the cab? I'd like to be able to hide it under the tonneau cover. id be willing to get one that hangs on the side of the bed...maybe lol any ideas? im not looking for alot of storage...just a little extra.

Look at Zabeards truck and search around some, this has been discussed before and there are ones available that you are looking for.

I have one made by Challenger that I bought in a Pep Boys about 2 years ago. It fits under the tonno perfectly and it holds alot of stuff without taking up too much space. My photo is not great, but this is the same one.

Walmart sells cheap-o padlockable plastic cases. I've looked at getting one a couple of times, but in the end I just moving whatever it is into the super-cab. I always had thoughts of blowing some bolts through the bottom of the bed to secure it, keep it from 'growing legs' and walking away on me. My uncle and I even cooked up a plan of welding some threaded nuts to the underside of the bed. This way you could run some bolts through the inside of the case, through my bedmat, through the bed, and into the threaded nuts. This way the case could not be unbolted w/o gaining access to the inside of the case. Yet when the case was removed from the bed, there would not be anything sticking up from the inside of the bed.

Never got around to doing this though..
