    Yep, high cube is 13' 6". The chassis sits at 4' so a standard box is 8'6" (12'6" total) and a high cube is 9'6" (13'6" total)
     
    HalpinUout and RERM Thank this.

    This shouldn't be an issue, unless he turns to sharp. ( I'll give you a hint, the front latches are in the same position) IMG_4852.JPG

    LOL. I don't see a bolt seal on it, a big pothole or bump might be just as bad as turning a corner with no weight holding it. Where was this?
     
    RERM Thanks this.
