Tool Box Beware
Purchased a 5th wheel tool box to go in back of my F350 (tailgate)"V" type model UTA-TB203-57RD made by Unique Truck Accessories purchase made from Tolboes4less.com. Box is neat but workmanship is poor. Pinholes in welds. corners not finished (inside) door crooked and leaking. Leaked sitting in back of my truck in light rain. They would not replace it did say I could ship it back if I paid shipping. Beware if you thinking of buying one. I would not purchase unless I could inspect it first. Not real good experience for me.Send me email if would like pictures of the problems.

Isn't there a way if you purchased with a credit card you can contest the charges?? Don't know, just trying to help? Maybe someone will chip in with more experience if you elect to try this route.

I made a charge on my Visa card and wanted to cancel the purchase, but the vendor would not allow it. I contacted Visa and submitted a dispute to the charge and 6 weeks later Visa refunded the money via a credit to my Visa credit card.
If you made the purchase with your credit card I would see if you can get a refund via the credit card company. Also some credit cards have a service that states if the product get damaged within something like 90 days they will issue a refund.
Doesn't hurt to give it a try.

John,
I would like to see some of your pictures and I'll bet several others would too. Why don't you post them so we all could see them. Thanks, Dennis.

John,
Welcome to the forum. I hope you get satisfaction. Remember about squeeky wheels. Try to make the Mid-Atlantic Rally in Myrtle Beach in August. We'd love to meet you.

I got a V box from camping world in Henderson, NV. After I got home, I mounted the box, hooked up the Monty and started to pull out of my yard. This requires me going 3/4s across the street behind my house and then making a hard turn to the right. When I made the turn, the extended pin box took off the right lid from the V box. Literally. The old style pin boxes that extend straight down have no problem. The extended ones do.
Carefully check your turning capability with the DW watching closely and be ready to stop quickly. I ended up having new lids fabricated that are pretty flush with the box. Now I can use it.
Normal pulling is no problem. But, when you make a sharp turn be aware of how much clearance you have with the V lids.

More than one way to send it back but I did want the box so I elected not to return it. They offered take it back if I paid shipping but not replace it with one that had all problems corrected. I will see if can figure out how to post pictures. Few hours caulking and adjusting things and it seems to be OK now it is raining today see if I got all the leaks stopped.
thanks for the repilies
