Dee Zee Truck Tool Boxes: Portable, Crossover & Wheel-Well Guide

Truck tool boxes are not one-size-fits-all. Dee Zee offers portable storage chests, crossover boxes mounted near the cab and wheel-well boxes that use otherwise awkward space. Compare the exact part number, material and storage volume below, then measure the available truck-bed space before purchasing.

Three different truck-bed storage styles

Portable chest

Self-contained box selected mainly by storage volume, external size and how it will be secured in the truck.

Crossover tool box

Wide bed-front storage designed to span or sit near truck-bed rails. Verify bed width and mounting method.

Wheel-well storage

Narrow, shaped boxes that occupy space beside a pickup's wheel housing; opening clearance is critical.

Published capacities describe storage volume, not the exterior footprint. Models with the same capacity are not necessarily interchangeable.

Model-specific exterior sizes

DZ6170N and DZ6170NB: 69¾ × 12 × 14¼ inches (L × W × H). DZ94B and DZ95B: 37 × 7¾ × 19½ inches. Confirm the installed truck, hinge-side and lid-opening clearances, not just these dimensions.

Before choosing a truck-bed tool box

Measure between bed rails, the available width behind the cab, wheel-housing clearance and the arc of the lid when fully open. A crossover box can obstruct a tonneau cover or rack, and a wheel-well unit must clear the bed sides and cargo tie-downs. Check exact model-specific hardware and installation instructions rather than assuming a common mounting method.

In this selection the plastic portable chests have non-locking lids; the crossover and wheel-well models listed have locking lids. Check model-specific drilling and supplied hardware rather than assuming every box installs identically.
