yeah, I had it on my old mazda... when I tried to put it in my Dak, it only would catch about 1/32" of rail on either side, and fell down. It wedged itself between the wheelwells and the front of the box, and I could still reach the locks/opener buttons, so I left it there until I got my rolltop. I dunno about a 50# bottle, but you could probably gang about 4 - 30# bottles... I ended up selling it tho.... But they still sell them at Lowes..

re-he-he-he-leeee?!?!?! It fits under the rails and you don't have to bolt
it down??? does it lock? do you think that a 50# bottle would fit in there
nicely? You don't still have the old box do you? I might be interested in
taking it off of your hands.....

The cool part is that the small one (for mini trucks) fits almost flush, UNDER the bed-rails, but it is tapered , so you can still open it. For me the advantage was that I could stand on it, and I didn't have to drill my bed to mount it. They are cheap too, around $100 or so. > > >>> renaldo@dsl-only.net 05/22/03 09:26AM >>> > > I've got a 2001 Dakota quad cab 4x4, and have been trying to locate a > truck box for the bed that fits properly, and haven't had any luck > locally.
