My raptor hasn't shown up yet. I plan on using my weatherguard tool chest that's in the f350 right now. Here's the link.

Model 674-52-01 All-Purpose Chest, Aluminum, Full Compact, 10.0 cu ft

I got a BakBox that rides under my BakFlip tonneau. Probably wouldn't be great for high speed off road but it's perfect for my usual trail driving and boat towing. And it's invisible.

I got the dual Undercover Swingout Tool cases. Love them.

hello thanks for responses still want this one but weather guard list it as a no fit for the raptor; I reached out to them and a 3rd party seller of theirs said it would fit but still hesitant about getting it and then having to return it if no fit. i like the lower profile top portion;

This is a photo of mine. I had to trim 2.5 inchs off of it to get it to fit under and open by the rails of my MX4 cover. 1.25 inches on each side. I still have 4.5 inchs if clearance under it. It is a low profile small box.

lol you sound like a weather guard sales guy; I know they are great but if you actually check site on the saddle box is not listed for the F150 thinking it has to do with the attachment part to the bed rails???? box is actually same size as big box.

Mine is the small low profile box. It is not a full size. I cut open the seams on the ends of the box and lid, then rebent it to size, cut off extra and welded back up. I think it is 61.5 inchs end to end on the lid. I am out of town and do not have truck here. Will get the sizes this weekend and post then. I mounted it to brackets mounted on the box link cleats. Have over 1800 miles off road , and a few small jumps with know issues so far.
