Default Left side toolbox with duals
Anyone have duals and a left hand tool box.

I know it will need to be modded but wondering how hard or tricky it would be?

Default tool box
I looked into it once some time ago and it seemed like it was not worth it to me i wanted it on the left to add more chrome on that side it would have helped.Left side was my first choice. i wound up putting one on the right side

You would have to put it diagonal. It won't line up like the right side will.

Not worth the effort...

diagonal if you have bags.

If your gonna make a bracket or fab anything, you can always throw the "does not fit" rule out the window...
