It will be a winter projest as well for me. I do not want to raise the engine and repair fiberglass. I really do not have an opinion on either brand, just want the beneift of an ext box. My boat is at Wilson's Marine as we speak getting the trim sender and switched repaired and will get an estimate from Andy when I pick it up.

Do any of these come with steering as standard equipment?

Bet cuz.

I suppose he could go negative also. -2 lowers & box set at neutral would be a +2" gain upward in x or he could use -2" lowers with the box at -1" and net a +1" gain. Or use stock lowers & set the box at -1" and net a -1" deeper x. Or about any other combination.

I was only trying to help you since I have done these sets ups on my boat and others when my buddy OWNED a baja dealership a few yrs back, there have been guys who used a stelling box with the imco tork shaft, but I think theres a extra chit you have to do. that ujoint set up on stellings eats them drives well you will hear it when you put the drives in gear and out:eek:. good luck

I appreciate your input. I'm leaning towards IMCO boxes and -2 Shorties. I'm looking to gain ride not necessarily speed with this setup. I'm hoping not to loose speed, but improve my ride and time to get on plane.
