Nice. And id rather have it mathematically correct rather than just how I think it is supposed to be

id rather have something that i like the sound of rather than correct mathematically

you have a point...i just don't want my ears to let meh down.

31hz works for me..i like it low. I might need some extra 1/0 from my battery to amp and id rather get some 10 guage speaker wire. I have 28'' more of the tube left over and I plan on going with aeros later on

Fits pretty good, seats aren't too bad. The middle seat fits perfectly and has lots of room for the bichs. Battery fits nicely on the other side of the box, and the amp is going to be mounted on the top. Might go pick up some wire tomorrow and hook it all up. Local prices are ridiculous...$5 and $7 per ft for 1/0 at a few places.

I tried like hell to take that back seat belt track off and it wouldnt budge. The bolts holding the peices on weren't coming off.

Very nice, glad to see it worked out //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif

Next time you build a box you can try to make it less deep and more wide to get more room behind the seats.

Thanks, yeah I thought about doing that but I wasnt 100% sure how deep the sub would fit in. And if I made it extend across the whole cab, I'd have no room for the battery.

get some heat on them and use a torque wrench

Ill try that but I used allen keys with the handles on the end and they didnt budge. They will strip before they come loose.

yea they can be a ***** there super tight, is that a chevy 1500 or 2500? Heating it will work..

Dodge 1500. I dont have a heat gun so how do I get heat to it?

are they allen or torx?

 

[CranberryYumYum 10+ year member]

they're torx that's for sure. all seat bolts are. you NEED the torx bit and a torque wrench or you WILL strip it, guaranteed. don't touch it without the right tools because it's a bitch and a half to drill out those seatbelt bolts

edit-heat gun? no, acetylene torch

 

[Bobby322 10+ year member]

I thought they were allen but now I think about it maybe they were torque. I hope they arent too stripped

Pretty loud!

Just got it all in today...did 1 of the big 3's as well, alt to battery

It gets hella loud when I have driver door open. Def. doesnt like to be sealed up though. Still have to mess with tuning and all. Think my LPF and subsonic are off.

Ill get a vid soon

Had to film with my 3mp camera phone sorry bout quality, still picked up some flex. Haven't fine tuned it yet, or experimented with many songs...just know this song is loud.
