Yeah the ranger is getting a x8 in a 1 cubic ft box , it will be done next week.Box builder was moving ,so box will take til next week. bass out of my head

I know this isn't about the ranger , which is having the box made, I went with a sundown x8. With everything considered it was based on cash and amp I had. I bought a super clean e21 Bmw with 5 speed all original. It's a 320is with lsd. Needs nothing I'm looking for rims and tires. It's console holding the radio (it houses the 4x6 speakers too) is broke. Darn it, I guess I will have to upgrade.Ranger will be on daily duty while I am swapping out a motor ,or turbocharging the one that's in there.It had a rebuild recently and has 8.8 comp so if I keep boost down around 8psi, it will be ok.I can't wait to pick it up, and paint it black with 15x7 bronze colored wheels, and ls1

Yeah , w140 , thanks again been working with Ryan .yes he remembers you and you were right.Hes very very good at building boxes, I can tell you he is the only place,I will take my truck too . He took the time to explain box rise, cabin gain,how to tune it in( and get some clean bass), how ohms work. He didn't get mad, he explained it , made sure I understood. He doesn't know it yet but when I pay for the box, I'm going to tip rather large. Thanks again for the recommendation Sean (w140) I'm looking at a super clean e21 bmw with lsd and 5speed , no rust. I know I can put something big in there.

ok ill try again

this is the sealed one ,i was looking at

The line by 17" measurement isn't a division ,I just wanted to give the measurement at that part of the box .Also the front of the box is flat BUT a bigger woofer would fit(12) if it's on a slant. I found a new little sub amp, MA audio hk-10ka at the pawn shop for 300.00 ,what do you think?

I tried to do what you did, just go off others measurements,don't work. Besides when you do it you will see how wrong those measurements are. Like m5 told me make a template, you may find more room or maybe something that others didn't find.

ok this is what I have, i hope this will work . I also remeasured after playing with the seats and I have a foot between the seats! The back comes above the back window a bit but thats ok. The front notch is 5 inches as i said before.

I am going to pull out my sub box , and make a template today. I got a bunch of cardboard and I will do my best.Then should I show you guys from the cardboard? Or just measurements?

On the second pic with the type r it shows the box behind the seats with the sub inverted. Now if I made a box in the center and behind the seats. So the box would look like a T.Would that help ? I can pop out the seats in 5 min ,to install. It may decrease airflow which would help,right? Slow down sound waves is a good thing right? Like polyfil?

Ok, I understand, I really didn't expect to have people even answer anything, really . I have went on other forums and get no response.I was looking for a quick answer to a long process ,which was stupid.I think I want for something that can't happen ,I don't have the space. So I have to make what I can . With the 24" height will be fine I can rest arm perfect at this height, the shifter goes in to second ,forth and reverse if I bring it back 3 inches but I gave 5 to be sure. I found a bunch of consoles and a couple are for my truck.

The line driver is because my stereo pre-amps are weak and it will kick it up to 8v. The box rises to 20" after 5" to clear my shifter so like the line driver it makes perfect sense. I'm trying to fill in all the check marks good signal voltage(which will be 8v instead of 2-4 maybe) and I'm trying to get all the space I can so after 5 " back height rises to 20-24 all variable for exact volume once a woofer is chosen ,

Ok I'm looking at Image Dynamics Idq10 and the massive audio hippos. I like the image dynamics all the specs look good especially x max and fs, this looks pretty good to me , I'm pretty sure I could work with its space requirements as well.

I know there's not single woofer that will do everything perfect. I want to get one that makes as much spl in the space I have. I picked up a pre amp line driver today,so that will help to widen the bass frequency. I don't know how I could put a 12 or 15 in ,but I want to know . I could make the box in front of the seats and drop it on a slant?
