4 12's in a pickup?

[thegreatestpenn 5,000+ posts]

Anyone know of installs with 4 12's in a pickup truck ported? Not a blowthrough, not in an extended cab pickup. Like a regular ranger with the 3rd door and a stupid pullout seat behind the 2 front seats. I don't think I can fit 8cu.ft. ported back there but my friend keeps insisting i can and wants me to help him with his install. HELP

Maybe if you go with a wall. I did two 15 L7s in an extended cab ranger. I believe the box was 7.5 after displacments and it only went up to the window line. It was tuned to 40 tho

ew, 40Hz tuning.

Yup the port was short so it wouldnt take up much room as I wanted to keep it below the windown line. Truck still got down on the lows.

measure the shit out? if it fits it fits if not it won't.. max dimensions will tell you.. if the max doesn't equal 8 then obviously no to the 8cu but you could go smaller dimensions for spl

I'm not getting it, but my friend is trying to make it work since he has something in mind already //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/rolleyes.gif.c1fef805e9d1464d377451cd5bc18bfb.gif

I'd be doing it, and I don't want my name associated with something that's screwed up.

It sucks when that happens. I have to do things that I don't want to do in nearly every install. People hate it when you shoot down their stupid ideas...

Then do it right. Im positive they will fit in a wall. Or a tall box. You prolly have 10-11 cubes back there to work with total.

don't just shoot em down.. explain em out why they wouldn't work or why this would work better then let them decide... the person paying makes the decisions.. don't like the decisions don't do the work simple...

that's a tight TIGHT fit for 8cu.ft. ported tuned to 35hz

I think it can be done. I have personally sat in a ranger with 4 12s. The subs were on the sides on the box and it was ported up. It was tuned high but was extremely loud.
