squish, morning...... Is that where the cooker is going to be permanently mounted on the trailer ??  If so, I would mount the FB between the CC and the axle... make a duct the width of the FB and weld it to the CC as low as possible....   

Sealing up doors etc. on that FB will be a nightmare... 

Can you elevate the CC and put the FB under it ??  That will be one huge firebox.... 3 day smokes.... 

I need to know a little more to help figure this out for you....  

What is the final plan going to look like ??  Are you planning on cooking standing on the ground ??

Hi Dave,first i wanna say thanks for helping me try to work this all out.Yes that is where the cc will be permanently mounted.We were thinking of setting the firebox down in the trailer some but up enough (flush w/axle)so it won't catch.According to the calulator that box is 3493cu in.bigger than the recommended fb size,i can cut it down if nessecary.Yes i do plan on standing on the ground.I will try to get a pic up of what i'm thinking in a bit.THANKS again!

Dave,the fb size right now is 28in deepx34in widex34in long= 32368cu in.recommended fb size is 28875cu in,if i cut it down to 25x34x34 it would be 28900cu in.if i did this rt and my math is correct this should work or am i still to big?
