    Default Weatherguard vs CamLocker

    Always had Weatherguard boxes and they’ve been solid for me. Every once in a while I have to adjust locks or replace the lift shocks.

    How do the Camlocker boxes compare quality wise. Prices seem pretty much equal.
    Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.

    I’ve had multiple camlockers. Great quality. Still have three. Besides some minor adjustments here and there, no problems whatsoever.

    I have had both over the years. There’s nothing wrong with the cam lockers however, I believe the weather guard is a step above in the strength of the aluminum.

    Weatherguard is what I always had on Personal trucks and all of my work trucks. Until I switched over to using nothing but service bodies and Knaack tool chests. That was a game changer.

    I’m still in shock at these things cost now.

    My apologies, I’ll go be poor somewhere else.

    Decked box is light years ahead, and for what they cost now, the cost isn’t even a factor for what you’re getting

    Truth. They are pricey. I have only ever bought two new (side boxes). You can often find pretty good deals on used ones on FB marketplace...

    Me and you do the same thing, I'm running new Weather Guards. You wont get a sheet in between them, add a headache rack or go under in the bed. Ive been running these boxes for years.

    The new box does not come with the level clip< but you can key them yourself.

    Tractor Supply had the low profile matte black WG for $300 cheaper than anywhere else, snagged one of those. If it ain’t broke don’t fix it.
    Yeah, but do you consider a dog to be a filthy animal? I wouldn't go so far as to call a dog filthy but they're definitely dirty. But, a dog's got personality. Personality goes a long way.

    Weather Guard is the only box my stuff didn't get wet in. Been using them for 25 years

    I found the same deal back in December. Was it at the store in Georgetown?

    What sets it apart? It's certainly not the looks.

    I do like the camlockers for the rail on top. If bed is too full can throw a cooler up there and strap it down and it’s not going anywhere. Wish weatherguard had that option

    I'm not sure if Feets got his cause he saw mine, but I also have the Decked system. The pull out drawers are a gamechanger. I think it is way easier to keep organized and easier to get to all your stuff instead of climbing into the back and digging through the box. You just pull out the drawer and everything is right there. Now you definitely lose some depth in your bed with it so things ride higher and lifting stuff into the back(deer and other things) can be tougher.
