Good god those are huge. I wonder what they sound like at low volume. I'd imagine you'd have to give it the full beans just to get the cone moving.

Sorry, I've been away and left you all without an update, but here are some older photos. I'll get this thread caught up within the next few days. We ripped apart the interior and started working on the cage. As the last photo shows, the old recones*take up the entire side to side space, which means this will be an interesting configuration.

Once cleared out, we started to work on the shell. We used 2"x1" steel. We elected to not go over the wheel wells in order to keep the rear AC and hopefully cool all the amps in the rear. We'll also have to mount the amps in some different positions because of the*number of caps used. Anyways, here are some pics of us stiffening up the roof with 3/4" wood in between the stock slots (kerfed to contour) and then about 10 cans worth of about 3/4" foam between the wood and cage. It's not as stiff as the Alpha's roof, but it is a lot better than stock.*

That's gonna be sweet! Is the truck drivable with the added weight and did you have to do anything to the suspention?

Nice!! Solid steel or tube steel? If it's solid, that's a ridiculous amount of weight //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/eek.gif.771b7a90cf45cabdc554ff1121c21c4a.gif

is this gonna be a basic ported or 4th? Even for those, you have a lot of room to play with

Sorry for the lack of updates. We've just been busy. The inside of the cage is complete with sides and top. We used angle iron to get the angle of our baffles and used some massive bolts to secure the iron to the cage. The excess PL is just to make sure that the bolts don't back out LOL. We elected to use 1" trim pieces to make sure that the sides, top, bottom are 100% sealed because there were just some minor gaps in some areas. We traced the sub cutouts using a yardstick LOL. The subs fit perfectly in test fitting on the grass. But now one baffle is completely mounted. Things are coming together.*

Here are the 48 banks. These are not the newest version from Maxwell, but we consulted some close friends and figured that they'd still be a great option for this build - especially when it came to weight savings vs. AGM and cost savings vs. lithium.

may i suggest fiberglass battery box?
