steve ive been searching through the forum here and i found a thread that you said you had busted two of your 8's upfiring them under the seat.. was this just from them hitting the seat while playing?? i just bought a cc 09' sierra and im catching hell trying to get my subs in here... i bought 2 sundown sa10 thinking that they would be easy to get in there.. but ive always been told that downfire was the way to go... i have them temporarily installed in some boxes from some jl10w3's that were sitting around til i get the permanent fix.. but these boxes are small... ive just been considering the upfire box.. bc i know i can get them in there that way alot easier.. but do not wanna break them by doing so...any input would help .. thanks bro

Yeah i broke two of them from hitting the bottom of my seat. i had so other 8s in the same box and had no problem but the sa-8s had more excursion than i expected. my fault!.

do you think i would have the same issue with the sa10?? i know they move a good bit.. just trying to figure out an option thats gonna work for these...

I would downfire them. i dont recall if you could fit them under the factory seat position. you would have to run them sealed at the very least. i have my seat lifted about 4 inches and use up all available volume in the back and i still only get 2.4 cubes ported. i could get 2.6 if i really needed but thats it.

ive got enough depth.. just need to move them a little closer to the frony of the seat.. i was thinkink about upfire.. and maybe flush mounting them to eat up a little of the excursion of the sub... possibly some sort of grill to protect the sub from the seat resting on it.. idk...

Well seems you have it all figured out then. if you have more questions start a new thread. my build log isnt the correct place to start a conversation about your truck. good luck and ill help you out if i can.

Can a MOD please clean this up a little. thanks
