Just need a guiding hand and make sure I do things right then help building a box. I want a local guy so I can do it in sections " dont have the cash to do all at one time " im learning as I go but so far i read i need a better alt. a good battery and maybe an extra battery. Im going to run 2 12's I want to run my 250 hcca " but is that good enough for 2 or do I need a 2100 or another 250 hcca. I have a 425 hcca for my mids and highs. I have a mazda b 2200 I was told I can get a 135 amp or maybe 160 alt off a old chevy or a 90's ford. thanks Jason

the older chevy alts can be made to fit almost anything,how much power can you get from the sub amp /hcca.if i remember 1000 watts rms at 1 ohm ,also do you have subs yet or you still need to buy them ? i sell american bass .as far as the box you'll want subs up port up to the drivers side if an extra cab.if you wanna make a bracket for the alt ,i can sell you a 175 amp chevy alt .most of the time it's pretty easy to install the chevy alts .my alt came from my old s10 truck that i wrecked in march ,was my spl truck ,was just rebuilt 2 days before the accident .for $30 i can give you a box cut sheet and plans ,with a material list also for your truck ,would need to know the area dimensions of where the box will be and what tuning you want .i can build one for you but you'd have to drive up and get it ,shipping will be expensive.

Ya im trying to what I can. I want to find someone that can just guide me along and let me know what I need. I can build " put together a box " if its cuts I can get done at home depot " I dont have a table saw. I know I can use a skill saw but I want it to be right on. How many amp alt. do I need ? I think stock is like 55 or 65 amp. Do i need an extra battery and if so what kind ? a small one or a full size one ?
