[QUOTE="Beatin', post: 8131462, member: 646085"] on the subject of building 4th's, isn't easier to build the sealed box first, then build the front chamber as a "sleeve" that slips over the sealed box? The you screw a plank of mdf on the bottom end of the sleeve that the rear of the sealed box is showing through to keep the sealed box from slipping out. You can have bolts screwed in on the sides of the sleeve so the sealed box won't go all the way forward if the entire system is sitting on its side. The small open edges on the back end of the box between the sleeve and sealed box can be stuffed with some foam or rubber to prevent air leaks. This way you can get to the subs quicker for whatever reason, or take it apart faster and put it in a different vehicle. [/QUOTE]
