It fits between the truck's frame and snowplow mounting bracket and measures 34 1/2 in. long, 12 in. wide and 9 1/2 in. high.
"I can access the toolbox whether the snowplow is on or off, and I can raise or lower the snowplow with no interference from the toolbox even when the lid is open. There's room for the truck hood to be opened as the toolbox fits between the hood and truck frame.
