Downfiring box for my truck

[Ridinhi]

🤣 Just to level it with the transmission hump.

Ohhh,lol. Wasn’t sure. Hope to get a chance to work on mine tomorrow. Weather is going to be pretty nice considering. Going to go to local junkyard and see what consoles there can find and incorporate into my console.

Calling for rain here tomorrow and I still have a bit of painting to do. Starting to wish I went the bedliner or carpet route. $2.49 WalMart paint doesn't save money if you're wondering.😅 That stuff is like water. After my current project, I want to try a console box for my SQL 12.

Yeah, I’m all about a budget but sometimes you get what you pay for. I’ve a sql 15 and would love to put it to use.

I used 50$ roll on bed liner from Harbor Freight on my 6th order. It actually dried nice and even to my surprise. That 1 gallon of bed liner painted 4 enclosures. One of the only cheap things I’ve bought that actually worked well from harbor freight. It’s also durable and resists scratching quite well.

Why the split port? Just curious.

Between the cold weather and taking care of my wife, progress is slow. I did add some bracing inside and out some feet in the enclosure. It’s lifted 3” in back and 4” in front. (Die to tranny hump). Looks rough but promise it will look good in the end. View attachment 45816 View attachment 45817 View attachment 45818 View attachment 45819

That’s turning out good. Well braced. I bet this sounds pretty damn good.

I was going to do a test but, I have reposition my amps and I’ve taken them out. Hope to get to work on it today some.

I have a question
I don’t see any nail or screw marks
Did you you do the whole thing with just glue?
If so what kind?
Always wanted to try but never had the balls to

tight bond 3 is some good stuff.the wood will break before the glue does.at least that has been my experience

Yep, just regular tightbond glue. I hardly ever use screws. Maybe to connect a port or to draw two pieces together if I’ve a gap, bit other than that, never. The glue is strong as [email protected] My xfl 10 , had a Ct sounds 2000.1 and only used glue with that box. No issues whatsoever.

It's a 6th order.

 

[shredder2]

It's a 6th order.

Parallel 6th to be exact. A series 6th would have a main port /w/ another inside.
