I would like to see the tool box also.

 

i imagine this is the space it is in...

 

xzach,

That is correct, it is in front of the 2 fender wells. The box sits low, and the area is filled in around with diamond plate to close off the whole area from the fender wells forward to the back of the cab and to the sides of door fillers, since no box would ever go side to side of the H-1. The two foot well areas are accessed by two small doors that are cut in the door filler panels, theseare flush access panels with a simple key lock. The foot well areascan be accessedfor storage, but it does get wet from rain running up the bed and under the box (just like a normal pick-up) and it also gets some road spray, so you would not want to put your dry socks in there!! I have never tried to seal these off because I am afraid I would trap as much as I keep out, especially if I didn't open the access doors to let the spaces air out. But it makes use of an area that would otherwise be trapped. I will try to take some photos that I can post so everyone can see what I am talking about. It willnot win any awards, but it makes a real neat functional item out of an otherwise trapped space.

Imagine a regular truck tool box sitting in the bed of the 2 door pictured, so the top is almost flush with the sides of the truck. Also, the single door toolbox can be opened from either side of the truck, and for anyone who has the 2 door, you need somewhere to store your stuff, because the cab is full.

 

Interesting

 

neat!

 

I'll echo this. Side steps on an h1 is pointless. If you want make a fool out of yourself put some sidesteps on an h1 or hmmwv and hit some sand dunes and watch little kids on their quads laugh at you as you get stuck.

The side steps make great shovels

 

I will have to qualify that for you.... I have side steps on my truck that I never take off... they work better in the MIchigan woods then the rock sliders for pivoting around trees on Drummond Island.... however, mine do not hang below the rocker panels, those that do tend to cause issues.... thats is unless you don't mind them being bent.....

 

Don't have side steps on my H1s. Use the Rocky Road sliders as steps for the wife on the H3. I have never wheeled anything with steps or nerf bars but I have seen a lot that do. Most have damaged them. Phaser I haven't seen anyone use the sidesteps as rocker panel protection. Glad it works for you.

 

I think this thread should be at the top of the list, considering theres not really any other except the ROTM

 

There are some better ones.
