Aside from my blade difficulty just posted, I have another tricky task. My
son left me his Tundra for several years with me while he's working outside
the country. He left a large tool box in the back that may weight 100 or
more pounds. I'd like to get it out. It's on its side and has caster wheels.
The truck bed has a camper shell. I can probably slide the box onto the bed,
but getting it on the ground is likely a real challenge. I don't think I can
just put up some 2x6s or plywood and slide it down. Any ideas?
Maybe removing tools would help, but since the trays are vertical, that
might be difficult.

Not bad. I think two very strong 30 year olds, one was my son, put it in there.

Borrow a 'Cherry Picker' engine hoist.

Lift toolbox, drive out from underneath.

I got a 400 lb fireplace insert into and out of my van using a couple 2x6's.
Slide the box to the back, with the end not quite 1/2 way out. Tip it onto the
boards which are on the bumper, and slide it down.
If the box is full, empty it and then remove it.
Or, just get a couple friends to help.
