Hate to steer away from the truck but I'm curious. On your trailer.. Is it tube frame? If so did you drill and tap the frame to mount the toolbox or use self tapping screws? Your trailer looks a lot like ours.

Yes Nate , it's a tube frame . I drilled and tapped to mount the toolbox . For the winch, I built another plate that mounts under the floor and spans the width of the tubing running front to rear. About a 3' span if I remember correctly . That plate mounts to the winch plate and also to the frame tubing . Picture the steel floor being sandwiched between the upper and lower mount plates, then the lower plate being bolted to the frame rails . Drilled and tapped those also .
