LA doghouse same thing with the new box?

So how's the new box LAdoghouse?

Ok thanks I'll keep that in mind. Hopefully I'll get a answer out of my dealer if the rigid ISO ones will bolt up. I'll keep you guys posted.

I think a epiq would look sweet with these. I wounder what the load capacity of these are. I know the epiq casters are rated a 2,000 lbs each.

Good idea. Yeah I have done this before. Just had 1 caster locked and it did roll better but it felt unstable and it wandered. Kinda of felt a difference in stability. I think my best bet is new casters.

I know it is sad harbor freight boxes roll better. I guess you didnt understand that I already know what the problem is. And yes you are correct on the cause of this.I have said exactly what you said in previous posts. You don't have to explain it to me thank you. I was simply posting more of...

Yes I know everyone is saying that "the casters are turned the wrong way". I understood that from the get go. But understand this there are many of boxes that can be fully loaded with more than enough tools in it and are still able to be pushed across a shop without having to turn the casters...

Here's a video of snap on's top of the line Epiq series. In the video as you will see the locked casters are opposite of the handle,wheel offset towards outside of box. While pushing it hops and pops, but pulling it is smooth.

Sorry to hear that. Let me know if u figure anything out and I'll do the same. I found some rigid iso casters the same size on snap ons website. Going to talk to my dealer about a swap out.

So have you found a solution with your box? I have been told by my rep and his boss that it is just the way they are. I have been able to put up with it but it still bothers me. I'm thinking of putting fixed casters on it.

It sounds like it could be caused from uneven ground but you should be certain that the ground is even before jumping to conclusions. Is the cart brand new?

So you can push or pull the box with the casters swiveling at the handle and the other side locked, no matter which way of the wheel offset, and it rolls without the wheels skipping and making loud noises?

Thanks for your opinions. I understand completely what you guys are saying. Yeah simple physics of a caster not rocket science I know and haven't refused to listen. I don't insist on pushing it the wrong way but just understand what I'm working with. In order to roll the box with the trailing...

That's very good to here thank you. Now I'm for sure there is a issue that should not be there with mine.

Yeah good picture. I actually never tried moving it with all of them locked like that but I bet it would freak out. I tried moving it with all of them locked like this and I think they skipped pretty bad push or pull. In theory it should have rolled smooth when pushing from handle...
