New plans for my Ext Cab Dodge.

[jake21 10+ year member]

Ok guys im gettin tired of my box i am using right now and am brainstorming and sketching out a new box. It will hold two alpine type r twelves. I will have 5cuft gross volume and will be using 2 4" aero ports for tuning. The box will have two sets of aero ports, one set will be 3" long T 47hz for SPL and the other will 10" long at 32hz for daily driving. It will be going in the back of a 98 dodge ram ext cab (the rear seat is removed)

Here is my desgin in google sketchup. The alpine mrp m-1000 and mrp-f300 will be screwed in on each side of the box with a neon tubes on each side on the backside of the face overhang.

They will be going in this

Let me know what ya think

I think its great your willing to remove the back seat

However you should take full advantage of the space, time and expense

Go with bigger and better subs

Speakers up ? Or forward ?

Speakers up. and i will be fiberglassing panels around the box in the future, probably some backlit plexi too. I also use this as a daily driver and i do go 4x4ing with so i want SOME room back there for luggage

For good sounding bass in the cab (while driving) I would fire the subs and port down

For SPL subs forward and port up

I'd use one more 4" aero, you can for sure get away with just two 4's but I'd just add one more if you can
