they move around to much when flexing and flog out the holes and then become loose ... and a real pig to drive on the road any where

Has anyone got plans to build some drop boxes? Will be doing a 4inch lift soon, could design them myself but it would make it that little but easier

Hi mate,

I'm from melbourne and I actually had my drop boxes made up by cass jones from climax industries very well put together boxes alot of competition vehicles acutally run these you can get some cheaper however the quality was excellent with the ones i had with my higher lift.

let me know if you want cass number even though he work in WA he frequently over here working on many vehicles as well as its quite easy to ship across the boxes from memory they were about $350.

these drop boxes are $400 + freight

Rohan canvan runs these in his gq middy and a number of other competitors such cass himself daniel all of which will be doing the outback or have done the outback before so they will withstand alot of punshiment.

They look pretty tuff!! How hard are they to install? Are they bolted on or welded? Can it be done at home?

Thanks again
