    If you have good experience with trailer toolbox installation give me links please. Even better If I can order custom and install it.

    Did research and can’t find production and installation at one place.

    Need one aprox 96’’ x 24’’ x 48’’
    And two 24’’ x 24’’ x 48’’

    Thank you for advices!

    Most reputable trailer shops can get what you need and install.

    Agreed. Find a small welding shop where you can go out into the
    shop and talk with the person who will do the work. You tell him what
    you want, he asked about anything he isn't sure about...….when the
    project is finished he will be talking to you directly.

    I have the same issue with getting accessories put on my personal
    pickup truck. Lots of shops around that advertise they do accessories...….
    not very many that do a good job.

    Northern Tool, Tractor Supply, farm and ranch type stores usually have them. Not sure about that biggest one you need though. 96” Long will probably be cu$tom.
