i remember seeing a video on here somewhere of a two RE MT 12"s on 2 SAZ 1500's burping about a 150...

you still have a lot of potential in a regular cab. how much power do you want to run? are you going to beef up your electrical? H/O alt, multiple batts, lots of 1/0 wire, etc...

basically, it depends on HOW loud you want to go... just let us know //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

not really lookin to change the alt, i have a deep cell batt, and i'm running 4 gauge...as far as amp power i will consider that when i decide on subs, like i said i want to get as loud as possible...it just makes me mad every time i pull up next to an suv with a system at a red light...i know i can't match it cuz of their space... but mine just doesnt sound loud to me anymore!!!

I'd love to help you out man. Let me know your max dimensions your willing to use for the box. It's all going to come down to how much space you're willing to give up and how much power your electrical can support. A single 12'' ported or a pair of 10s ported will be your best bet. Here's a pic of my ranger to give you some ideas.

Here is the minimum you should do in my opinion:

-Stuff the biggest battery possible under your hood

-Do the big 3 in 1/0

-Change the 4awg to a single run of 1/0

This one is ported out the side:

2 12"s ported shouldnt be a problem in a full size reg cab. you should have about 58" or more width. what measurements do you have to work with in your truck?

Haha. It's not for daily. I can barely drive with the box in the cab with me. Thank goodness the TL is 5 mins away and the competitions are with 2 mins of the house. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Nice looking truck. I had a '96 with a 5.7L but it was a long bed. It was my first vehicle and I miss it a lot.
