Recommended Trailer Tongue Tool Box to Hold Two Propane Tanks
Question:
I have an aframe trailer with two 20 pound LP tanks and a 12v battery on the tongue and would like to secure all 3 in this box. It appears I can fit the two tanks in but would I be able to fit the battery as well? The footprint dimensions if the battery is 12.75” x 7”. If you could provide the inside dimensions of the box that would help. Thanks

Thanks for the picture! A standard 20 lbs propane tank is just under 18" tall so the DeeZee Specialty Series Trailer Tongue Tool Box item # DZ91717P is not going to work because it is only 17" tall. A standard 20 lbs propane tank is 12.125" in diameter by 17.625" tall. With this in mind I recommend the UWS A-Frame Trailer Toolbox item # UWS01039 which is 21" tall, 49" wide in the back and 24" at the front.
This toolbox is made of aluminum and weighs only 37 lbs. The included locks will help secure your toolbox from theft. It has 6.3 cu ft of usable space.
I have linked a diagram below along with a review video.
