They are tough to find, I know cause I have the same bed. Your best bet is measure the bed, then go to TSC and find one with the same dimensions. Unfortunately when you search for them, they dont really show specific ones that fit our trucks. I lucked out and found a used one, but I am sure you will find one once you get the measurements.

TSC can also order parts too.
When I wanted my gull wing tool box, they didn't have any but they were able to order one & a week later it was there.
You have to find the right person to talk to though, some of them don't know their butt from a hole in the ground, but the guy I got was really helpful, he even said he could get it in black instead of bright aluminum.

If you have any metal recycling places nearby, give them a look too. My uncle bought 4 or 5 random aluminum truck boxes for as little as $10 each. They had a few scrapes & dings, but he cut 'em up for the diamond plate to put on a car hauler he was building.

I found my UWS one on craigslist for $75. I searched for a year to finally find one.

Here's the one's that SHOULD fit your truck on the UWS website:

Wherever we want to go, we'll go. That's what a truck is, you know. It's not just a frame and a cab and a bed and engine, that's what a truck needs but what a truck is... what the Ranger really is... is freedom.
