    I was wondering where someone might take their rig to get this installed, since it requires drilling into the frame.
    My normal shop won't touch it due to liability even if I sign a disclaimer...

    Any thoughts?

    Any truck dealer will mount those. You need to find a new repair shop.

    Wisconsin kw would not mount that box? Lawyers are wrecking this country. 3 dealers in my area kw , pete and Mack all would mount that thing. Take all your business else where . Try truck body shops , dump body, plows etc .

    Ok..in all fairness, what I meant was I will NOT return to WI-KW. I have been screwed over every which way possible by those people.
    Their service department would likely mount them upside down and then want to CHARGE me to correct them.

    HAHAHAHA! - I see you been there, done that :biggrin_25521:.


    I have an account at Trudell and Spellman....I was actually thinking of having Trudell mount them.
    I get along with Larry in the parts department really well...he's an ok dude to deal with.
