Slide in box plans
Slide in box plans
Does anyone have a set of plan and material list for a FNT style 4 hole rigging box. I have a welder and time to build something I just don't know where to start on he plans for what works best for a dog box. His is something I have yet to build but I know how I want the underside of the box due to gn hitch that will not move in my old dodge ram.

If no one has any to share I will draw some up and ask for input here in the next few days.

Re: Slide in box plans
i have a 4 hole fnt box for a small truck. if i was you i would make it a 3 hole on each side because. 3 dogs can fit each side unless there all big hounds. thats my big regret of ordering just the 4 hole instead of 6. also i dont know how big your dogs are bout i belive my doors are 13'Wx15"H. little smaller than ones you drew. i dont know if your making it the same as FnT but for the slides that cover the holes id make them out of thicker material because they dont hold up to well

hound hunting isnt a sport, its a way of life
Re: Slide in box plans
I don't think the doors are the same as the FNT. The two dogs I got are 92 and 100 lbs, they may be down to 85 and 90 now diet and a lot of running here lately. I have yet to see an FNT in person I just like the way that they look. I just want to make some changes so it will fit in my truck better. Hence the 6" channel under the box so it can slide over my gn hitch and still allow me the use of it if we run the dog while on horse back. Both of our trucks have a gn hitch in the way. I am just looking for extra input before I start building a box about what changes or dis likes everyone has that would make a box better. I was thinking about between the channel making 2 slide out storage compartments for collars and what not. Could not hold a rifle but could hold some stuff
