New BIG BOX time

[Richym76]

I've grown out of my krl7023, and my mac dealer is trying to get me into a 1900 maximizer with two end cabs, Im not keen on all of my shallow/narrow drawers on my 7023 so I've been looking at the 120" epiq's,

Has anyone got any other suggestions?

As I'm in uk my choice is more limited I only get the mac and so vans at my shop.

I've got KRL's....If my MAC Guy were trying to get my business, without a doubt I'd go with a Macsimizer...I personally feel the Macsimizer is much more box then the KRL or EPIQ.
Cant say any of them are worse then any other, but I really like the Macsimizer...

i have a 84 epiq and its massive, Id be scared to get a 120 shipped overseas, I know a local guy here ho had a 144 replaced under warranty because it flexed during shipping

 

[Richym76]

Flexing, tbh never thought of that, what damage is caused?

the 7023 limits what I can bolt to it because of hight, it's frustrating!

I found that getting the hutch or riser on my classic 78 definitely got me some valuable space. The back panels now house all my ratchets, extensions, drill chanrger and frequent use screwdrivers. The 7023 would house a ton of stuff in the hutch. Im thinking about getting the bulk storage lockers that sit on top of the hutch too.
Do they not do a side locker fr the 7023 then? I love those boxes and id be more inclined to add some extras rather than trade it if the extras exist... (if I was still in the uk id be encouraging you to get rid of it so you could sell it to me though!!)

Trade up to the next bigger box(1023?) and, at the same time, spec the new box to have whatever drawer layout you like. There is no difference in price. It will take longer to have it built, but you'll be happier in the long run.

I love my Macsimizer; it's a beast.

I prefer to keep my ratchets in the top drawer.

I was surprised how fast my 84" filled up. I figured it would be my last box but now I m looking for a side cab.

I thought the same thing about my 68" and been looking at the 120" and Mr Big for the past year. I wish they'd make a Mr Big that has all full width drawers on one side (like one of the 120" has)and a power cab.

 

[Richym76]

I've made a u turn today. Ordered a royal blue krl7022 to bolt up to my triple. Would love a new white BIG box but I'm going to keep it real! Will get a Locker next i think.

FYI, pretty sure you can hang a 10-series locker/end cab on a 70-series, it'll just hang down 4" below the lower edge of your box. Or I guess boxes, as it were.

Makes it a PITA to move I suppose, I know the 1003 with lockers we were storing just cleared the rollback deck by maybe 3/4". But what that big isn't gonna be a pain to move?

From the looks what's on top of his box, he's been keeping his wenches well lubricated, too!

I guess we've solved the question of why American's need such big tool boxes.

My Mac dealer would be way better off if he sold ratchets like that on his truck.

The prices for these mega boxes are starting to make more sense.

Lol. Now that's funny. Good one.
