I'm looking into making a set of these for myself, and since I kno there are some mog guys on this site I thought I would offer to all. For those of you interested, here is a link of what I might end up doing...

I will probably end up drawing this up on cad and getting them water jetted up...

Let me know what you guys think...Any better suggestions?? I'm still looking into how to improve these even more... BTW how many have disc's instead of the drums... I do strongly believe these help the box strength if done correctly.

As for price I'm not sure yet, I'll have to wait to get them designed up. Whatever the case, they shouldn't be too ridiculous... I just dont feel right paying the ungodly amount they want for the new CNCed boxs. After these are done I am going to weld them with 7018 DC, however I have seen people mig these in. Let me know how many of you are interested. Million dollar crawler?? Pizzajeep??? Whoever...
