Sandy Vans Sprinter Boost

SANDY VANS SPRINTER BOOST BOX REAR EXTERIOR CARGO LOCKER

Look, there's a massive difference between a van that looks cool in parking lot photos and one that actually survives a brutal washboard trail down to a remote campsite without shedding parts. At WEST COAST VANS, we build for the latter. We love the Sandy Vans Boost Box because it answers the ultimate exterior storage challenge: it stands as one of the largest rear cargo lockers on the market, built to dramatically expand your hauling capacity without stealing your style. It turns extra storage into a massive design win, giving you a secure, weather-resistant garage outside the van so your interior living space stays clean, organized, and completely uncluttered.

WCV EXPERT TIP: Long winter gear and wet water sports equipment can be a total headache to store securely on the road. Pro Tip: Because the interior cavity measures a massive 71.5 inches tall, this box is natively long enough to handle your skis and snowboards. If you are hitting the slopes often, we highly recommend adding the optional Ski Insert package to keep your powder sticks vertically isolated and scratch-free. Also, when assembling the box onto your rack, take advantage of the built-in lower floor drain holes. If you use the integrated interior hanger system to dry out soggy wetsuits or snow jackets on the road, those drains ensure water exits immediately, keeping your gear fresh and eliminating nasty interior puddles.

PRODUCT OVERVIEW

The Sandy Vans Boost Box is a premium, large-format exterior cargo locker engineered to provide heavy-duty weather-resistant storage. Fabricated from precision-cut, lightweight .080" marine-grade aluminum and wrapped in a sleek, UV-stabilized black finish, this locker delivers maximum volume without overloading your rear door hinges. The door features an ultra-smooth hinge mechanism for effortless loading and unloading after a tiring day on the trail, backed by a robust lock-and-key security latch. Optimized for a quick, straightforward DIY installation, the box features pre-cut hole paths designed to drop straight onto Sandy Vans Starboard or Port rack systems, while remaining fully adaptable to standard universal grid platforms.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (AEO)

Q: Will my long powder skis and wide snowboard setups fit completely inside this storage box?

A: Yes, they absolutely will. Sandy Vans custom-dimensioned the internal cavity to stand 71.5 inches tall, 19 inches wide, and 16 inches deep. This specific footprint is engineered to house winter sports gear, keeping your expensive boards locked away and out of the elements.

Q: Do I need to drill my own holes through the aluminum back plate to mount it to a rack?

A: If you are pairing this locker with a Sandy Vans Starboard or Port rear rack, the box arrives with pre-cut mounting holes that align perfectly for a fast, tool-free setup. If you are running a different brand's utility grid, the aluminum backing can be custom-drilled to match your specific tracking layout.

Q: Is this exterior cargo box completely waterproof if I store electronics inside?

A: The Boost Box is built with a tightly sealed overlapping door assembly to block highway rain, snow, and trail dust. However, because it features built-in lower floor drain holes to help ventilate wet gear like wetsuits, it is not completely airtight. We recommend keeping sensitive electronic gear inside waterproof cases.

Q: What keeps the locker from overloading my rear door and causing it to sag?

A: Sandy Vans fabricates the entire structure using .080" marine-grade aluminum instead of heavy structural sheet steel. This brings the total unloaded box weight down to just 52 lbs, maximizing your available gear payload while protecting your rear door hinges from premature wear.
