Walled Nissan Hardbody with SoloX 18

[lmsfootball35 10+ year member]

Well, I started the build a few days ago but I havent had a chance to post anything till today. The truck is a 1995 Nissan Hardbody 4x4 and I am putting 1 Solo X 18 wired to 2ohm on 1 KX2500. I have a powermaster D3100 battery and I am waiting on my Iraggi 180amp amputator alt. to come in any day now. It is a 10ft^3 box tuned to 35hz. The main part is finished but there is still some minor stuff that I will do to finish it off. I am in the Army and I had been gone for a lil over 6months without my truck so thats when this build started brewing in my head. I got to power everything up tonight and Im very happy with the sound. It was already really late so I didnt get to play it loud for too long but Ill mess with it more tomorrow. Here are some pics of the wall and I will try and get some more pics of the rest of the truck.









Here is a pic of my CVX 12 sitting in the enclosure for size comparison

honestly for the front baffle, you might get some flex there, I would have more or less made a square and used a 2nd peice of 3/4 mdf for the 'beauty panel', actually even with 2 you might have some flex, atleast thats what your box looks like, a single 3/4 baffle.

Im not so sure if I like the placement of the amps. I think it looks to crammed together myself. I was thinking about mounting the amps to the side of the enclosure behind the front panel to where you wont be able to see them. That way it would free up the clutter look. And in the last pic, I dont have all the bolts in the sub.....I hadnt put them in yet. I figured I would just throw that out there before someone else flamed me for it.

Like the wall, maybe build some type of false floor amp racks though.

Yup, but the chrome isnt in the best shape. I was thinking of repainting them.

Yea, I wish I had enough room in this thing to make a nice amp rack but I think Im gonna end up mounting the amps where you cant see them behind the front panel.
