Assuming you downloaded Lispbox from here:

http://common-lisp.net/project/lispbox/

then it seems the latest release of Lispbox was 3.5 years ago. This
means Lispbox uses a version of Emacs (23.2) which not only doesn't
include 3.5 years' worth of bug fixes, but which also doesn't include
`package.el` by default - and `package.el` makes it /much/ easier (in my
experience) to install the latest version of SLIME (as well as many
other dev-related packages).

So i feel you would probably be better off downloading Emacs
24.4, using the Emacs packaging system to install SLIME, and then
customising further from there.
