I know- random question... Here's the story - I was SUPPOSED to have it delivered to me today at my home, but stupid freight company is behind and it's not getting to my terminal up here now till late morning. I planned my entire work week around it coming today so I won't be home the rest of the week to sign for it. I have a yukon ext I can borrow that's long as hell. Anyone know how large the boxes are for the kit? Would they fit in the yukon providing I remove the rear seats? Any help would be appreciated. Don't wanna drive 40 minutes out there and find out nothing will fit... .yet you'd think if nothing else I could unpack them from the boxes and they'd fit just fine.

I dont think it'll fit. the box for the front and rear bumpers are like two small motorcycles / scooters.

and the side skirt boxes are long as your car obviously, and well protected.


Your best bet is to go to the shipping place, and take out the bumper and parts, and put them in your car, as long as you don't drive crazy, your parts will be well protected.


Good luck!

I think it should fit in a yukon if you take off the packaging. I suggest going with a roll of bubble wrappings you find at Staples if you don't feel secure having the bumpers possibly sliding around when driving. It's a Yukon and I don't see how it's not possible to fit two bumpers in the back. It's probably like no more than 5 feet long and maybe a foot or two in depth. I've fit 2 55 gallon tanks before in my X5 and it's fine. I don't see how the bumpers will be that much bigger without the boxes. But from what I've seen in the forum with the CarKing packaging (acs bumpers) , the boxes aren't that big.

Now I'm all nervous
Skip the yukon and skip unpackaging as you never know what could happen. Borrow or rent a full size pickup or for 40 bucks get a little uhaul.
The boxes are big enough for 2 homeless families.
