These are the vacant spots on the trailer to mount a box. Not sure if any of them have enough space for any boxes, but I am no expert on trailer mounting boxes.

Under your bunk, if you don't want to drill into the railing and install a locking bolt per pocket, or you could sliip a small box under the upper deck near the landing gear. You have options, just choose one.scoobertdoo Thanks this.

If you mount a box on the side of trailer they seem to have a problem getting ripped off and high centered.
I put pipe pins on my old step and never used them.
Welded two pcs of L channel from bottom of beam to underside of pocket rail on a angle and just drop them down in. Made a pin with a flat piece of steel strap and dropped it down in a pocket so they would not bounce out. A lock or a bolt would secure it from theft.CAXPT and scoobertdoo Thank this. -
I also have seen where they hung placard's between the step and landing leg.
CAXPT Thanks this. -
Any room for a box on your truck?

I am buying a headache rack this week.

When I drove for my old boss we ran a single 120gal tank on the driver side and had a 60” box under the bunk on the passenger side and it was wonderful. Had room for everything between that and the two big boxes on the trailer. I didn’t have dual tanks working there until the 2017 glider I got and then we had two big boxes and two small boxes on the trailer.

A box like that is always an option if you start running out of room and don’t mind fueling almost everyday. The bonus is you would always have a pile of showers on your card.
Rookie driver 956, PPLC, cke and 2 others Thank this. -
I had thought about something like that.
Ripping out the dpf junk and finding an old square tank with built in step, then ripping off the def tank and fuel tank from the driver's side. Just would get expensive very quick, and might as well get the 120" sleeper I really want lol -
Well the weight is in. This is without chains, binders, or headache rack.
singlescrewshaker, beastr123, cke and 1 other person Thank this.
