Any of you guys built custom boxes for a rhino? I am looking for ideas. Most likely a open type summer box with one door? Pictures or plans would be great to see Thanks.

Live to Hunt,

I would have to know if it is a White or Black Rhino?

There is a big difference in requirements!

John, that's too funny. Sorry couldn't resist. You might try searching atv and utv dog boxes for ideas.

I have one I built for a ranger. It is not a good picture, If you want, I could take some better ones.

Thanks Buck.Mine is the red rhino. I have mostly walkers but as you see theres a red tic and a B&T-Bluetic cross dog on there too.Those side by sides are damn impressive!!

Yeah I was curious about that B&T/bluetick mix, damn good setup man! I have to beat up on my 05 Tacoma Double Cab.....haha that doesnt fly with the misses too well at times but what can ya do? She doesnt want me to get an older Toyota pickup to beat up on but she doesnt want me to beat up on my newer pickup. She needs to make her mind up

I'm going to take it out this weekend so i'll try to get you some close up pics before i do. it just sits on the bed rails except for the back.Its all made from 1/16" 3/4 square tubing and some 1/2 in square tubing with a 3/8 in plywood deck on it. I think it weighed under 75lbs, but I didnt weigh this box. I can load and unload it alone with ease where my old box was smaller and weighed 82 lbs and was a little harder to load than this one.
