Barry and any one else interested,
I had one those "fiber" boxes from Delta. It looked great. The contoured box looked perfect on the truck. But, after about a year on the truck, the box started leaking, and stress cracks started developing. Now, the mounts for 2 of the 4 tention springs have completely broken off. It seems that as the box ages, the "fiber" plastic becomes VERY brittle. I loved the way the box looked, but it only lasted about 1 1/2 years.

Do you happen to remember the model # of that box?

here. it's not regular plastic, more of a fiber something or other (really
strong). 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.
