Inside Trailer Width Needed to Install Storage Trunk for Malone MicroSport and XtraLight Trailers

Question

Question:

I see the answers for the width- 37 3/4 for the box. Id like to know what the total distance is between the mounting plates, not just the box but the required room needed to mount. Trying to see if it will fit the Northern Tool trailer that I have Malone bars on, thanks.
