Review on UnderCover SwingCase Truck Bed Storage Box for 1999-2007 Chevy/GMC Silverado/Sierra 1500-3500: Driver's Side Convenience by Joshua Castillo

After putting a roll up blanket in the bed of a 2007 Chevy truck, I ran out of room to store a few essentials that I carried in a large tool box that I no longer use could after mounting the cover. You know, some rags, ratchet straps, a hitch receiver, etc. I really don't have to flip the lid down very often, and most of the side-mounted boxes I've found only offered top access, which would be a hassle. Partially flip the lid off every time I needed to get into the tool chest. SwingCase is the real answer to real storage problems. The SwingCase pivots for easy opening, the entire unit can be quickly removed and removed from the hinge pins, which is unlikely given the small footprint of the bed it occupies and latches. Lid locks and a padlock (not included) can secure the box to the bracket for security when the duvet is opened and left unattended. The car door latch responds with a reassuring click when the SwingCase is stowed away for travel, while the convenient release lever makes it easy to unhook for quick access. I chose the passenger side mount because I leave some of the items on the driver side bed just behind the gate that I have constant access to. This arrangement works great for me. Everyone who sees my SwingCase goes crazy for it. My only complaint is that the support cable for my truck's tailgate doesn't allow it to fully extend out of the body. I've only considered removing the cable and storing it in my SwingCase when I need a tailgate support for wood or other long items. Very well made and strong enough to survive my truck.
