[QUOTE="LoneRanger, post: 3367, member: 540903"] IT CAN BE DONE! The space behind the seats of a reg. cab ford ranger (91-95 model) is roughly 13" in height, 36" in width, 7" thick at the bottom and 2.5" thick at the top. The biggest working enclosure i could build with the stock seats in place (all the way back) was one with almost .5 cubic foot per chamber. The only problem you'll run into is mounting depth. You cannot put the speaker holes in the middle of the box as you usually would.

There are some online companies that sell custom fit boxes for reg. cab rangers, but they're not easy to find, and expensive to ship.
