is there a reason why you didnt just do a full wall? i mean its almost to the roof as it is why not just wall it and do sub and port forward

mostly because the box will go in any extra cab vehicle later making it easier to get rid of and not so much of a lost investment , being that im gonna change the setup in the near future i really didnt want to wall yet , im debating a cut through or maybe a wall , im looking for high 50's on music so this setup wont be in very long . .

Maybe but I won't have anything installed. I just sent my amp into db-r today to get repaired

dam i wanted to hear your setup too . .

where are you putting the amp / battery box? also just a question the roof on my 2005 dakota flexes like hellz with just 1200 ish running on my single XXX 15 so... 2 18's with the port so close to the roof. My box is sub up and port up but still my box is also about 3 feet from the roof and i get crazy flex if my box had the port near the roof i dont know how i could keep paint on it lol. I'd love to see how bad the flex is on that once its in but looks good!!!

the amps/batts are going in the bed for a few weeks until my be cover arrives then i will do another install on them . . lol i know the rear of the roof is weak it will have four layers before the box is put in . .

ehhhh still tho with even that your going to have issues with paint chipping. I have a hard time understanding why you would put 2 18's in the truck with the wall a few inches from the roof? if it were a trunk and thats all you have sure but still..... i'd angle the port forward if i had to. simply because with the port up your going to hinder your output and cause structure damage to your truck. and cause bad viberation noise. even with 4 layers of matting its still not going to reinforce your roof... at least not enough to keep your sound from killing your truck. but thats my opinion. either way its going to be an awesome beat.
