I built the box off the truck and then attached it to the frame. I built the box by getting a sheet of steel cut to the size I needed. I then built a frame out of aluminum square tubing. I used JB weld to put the frame on the steel so that I wouldn't have issues with steel against aluminum. Then I riveted aluminum sheets to tthe frame. I got the door from kinro directly.
I went to a truck junk yard and got a pair of L brackets that mount to the frame, drilled out the frame to mount the brackets, and mounted the brackets and box.
