I looked at that. With no bottom plate, may just drill 2 holes in my ammo can and use thick rubber washers to keep it from vibrating against the ROPS.
Simplest and inexpensive option if the holes in the ROPs are positioned where you would like your tool box to be placed. Forgot to note I did pad the store bought bracket with some diy (inner tube) rubber gaskets to reduce the chance of gouging the ROPs paint. IIRC, needed to put a backing plate on the inside of the tool box. Not the heaviest gauge plastic box. Probably not needed. Box sits on the two squarish bars of the clamp kit.

I have both plastic and metal ammo boxes. Not sure the plastic would hold up to the bouncing around. I have 2 holes in my ROPS, top and bottom. Project for this summer.

Was looking for some larger L brackets that would allow for tool box to sit on as well as thru bolted to the ROPs. Gave up and purchased the bracket. No spare metal tool box or ammo boxes sitting around. I would still put a backing plate on the inside of a steel ammo box. You might need to shim the box on the ROPs side. The one steel tool box I considered repurposing has a slight slant to the sides and unsure due to where the hinge is vs. an ammo box if the lid would swing open. Something simple started to get a bit more complex. Lazy me just hit buy at AMZ.
