Hey Mike, this is a great question but the weight capacity of the MOS Uplifter # MR79ZV is 85 lbs and it will reduce the weight by 75 percent. So for easy math's sake lets say you had 85 lbs of cargo you'd only be lifting what feels like 21 lbs.

Hey Mike, how did the lift assist work out with your ShellRaiser roof cargo box? It’d be great to hear if the 75% weight reduction made loading and unloading easier. Your feedback could help others looking at the same setup.
