[QUOTE="KTMrida4life, post: 7559912, member: 637865"] Not sure why I was doing the angles, just gonna make for a PITA later. Heres a revised version [IMG]http://img32.imageshack.us/img32/6294/boxrevised.jpg[/IMG] Inside dimensions for the rear section are 10" x 33.75" x 11.375" (height) and for the front section 40.75" x 6.5" x 11.375".
