Hi Ken

I would strongly suggest that you remove the tuner and amp chassis as well as the woofer and place these in large plastic totes or large boxes. Then you can lay the cabinet face up in your van - or face down if you have thick blankets under the cabinet. Face up would prevent damage to the door pull knobs.

The cabinet is very heavy, even without the tuner, amp and woofer inside. I would not attempt to move it with these components inside the cabinet. The amp is supposed to be bolted in, but it may not be - especially if it has ever been serviced. And one little screw is not going to hold the tuner chassis. For the safety of the radio and your own peace of mind, remove the tuner, amp and woofer before moving the radio.

Congratulations, good luck and safe trip...
