Thanks, I will take your recommondations. It is that model shown below. I was pretty sure it will fit, but was hoping to hear what others say about it.

Since the cabinet is pretty standard size, I was hoping to find out what that size was. I know I can ask the guy I'm getting it from, but I've been bothering him a lot recently (my first cabinet).

thanks for the info

: A couple hints/tricks about moving cabinets at odd angles....

: 1) Take some tools with you!

: 2) Remove the monitor if you are going to ship the game in a 'non-standing' position. This is the most delicate part of the whole cabinet, and you dont want it tipped at odd angles and being vibrated to death during a 2hr trip. Place it in the vehicle seperately.

: 3) Remove the control panel. Once that is off, you basically have a box that can be layed on any side.

: 4) Remove the bezel and marquee -IF- they are made of glass. Flexing of the cabinet during the move may 'pop' them. If they are plexi, no worries.

: 5) Be sure to clean out anything inside the cabinet that may get bounced around into the circuitry during rotation or travel. Leftover spilled coins come to mind...

: As for the suburban, if -this- is what you are getting...

: Then you should be able to lay it down with the back seat down/out and have plenty of room, provided you dont bring 3 friends to help you move it. :)

: A general rule of thumb for cabinet size, it that are rarely over 6 feet tall, and can usually be broken down into parts that will fit through any 30" doorway.
