Drop Boxes from Mal

Post by GRIMACE »

Hey Guys/Girls,

Just thought this might be of interesting topic, I spoke with Mal Story @ Maxi Drive a couple of months ago in regards to the lockers, got caught up in a major interest on the 5" Drop Boxes available for around 12000 dollars.............thats alot of dough.......I want them.

Who reackons they are worth that sorta cash? I would like to get a set put on my rangie (donations welcome :P ) I would like to find out more about them and exactly what else is needed to accomodate the steering system as its gotta get stuff alittle bit outta proportion.

Well I think they are very interesting and I have found myself waking up in the early hours of the mourning slightly wet from the wild dreams I have had about having these four BOXES surrounding me as I sitting between them in the drivers seat.

WHAT DO YOU GUYS/GIRLS REACKON ? ? ?

I PERSONALLY WISH I HAD $11998 (I got $2 in my wallet already, i have been saving) :D

P.S. remember DONATIONS WELCOME he he ha ha :? :) :lol:

Why spend $12,000-00 when for a about $9,000 you could run these fitted with factory lockers :D

Keep goin guys If I can get abit more info and at a much cheaper price I AM VERY INTERESTED.
I only ever herd of them from Mal (Maxi Drive) and Dobins Engineering (his truck is cool).

If anyone out there has more info on the differences between portal axle drops available for RR's please keep the info flowing.

Cause I could fit these with only a 2" suspension lift and it would be more than sufficient.


More pictures too ! ! !
Cheers

Can I get a list of names/companies that do Portal Axles within Australia?(phone number would be great to)
I just cant seem to find the correct info on the internet and I am not sure what sorta response i am gonna get from companies outside Australia.

Cmon Guys/Girls
I am stuck between a rock and a bigger rock (i need these portal axles to get me out).
Ow just pourchased some little 265/75/R16 BF MTRs they are not cheap (NOT CHEAP ENOUGH FOR ME ANYWAY) I was gonna take the Wrangler MTR's but the price was even higher ? ? ? I was told they would be cheaper.
