for those of you that didnt see in the other thread,

i took the first one out. i really wasn't happy with it once i thought about it. this one, already with the false floor, is coming out alot better. the floor is 2 layers thick. the first layer is bolted with 1/2" x 2.5" bolts in the rear, and up front its tite bonded, and screwed to those 2x4's u see under there. the 2x4's themselves are also bolted to the body with the same bolts.

none-the-less, its very sturdy, and not gonna budge.

the 2nd layer is self explanatory, its to make is 100% level (to cover the bolt heads used to bolt the first layer down)

and to clarify, the cuts i made on the rear cross-member, to get those bolts in (still cant believe i did that) will be getting welded shut by my body shop soon. just wanna throw that out there, becuase i know someones gonna comment on the pic that shows those cuts lol...

anyways, pics-

btw- i havent decided on subs yet. or the exact style of box. im 95% set on doing a ported clam shell, i just gotta see how much space im working with.

[Slinky]

good luck on the build and take your time

[pimpedout97x]

i will for sure

[pimpedout97x]

cut out the bottom piece of the box. i need to get more Birch.

[pimpedout97x]

cut out the back/bottom today.

[pimpedout97x]

back is green, sides are blue, bottom is red

the sides will be continued tomorow. i gotta finish measuring. it was a PITA getting the exact dimensions and everything

[pimpedout97x]

cut the odd side pieces out. most of you will be confused, but im gonna get more done tomorow, and you will understand as the pictures progress, as to why its cut like it is.



9.5* angle



dry mock-up





sorta what im going to do tomorow. the sides will extend out with the side trim, thats why the side pieces are cut like they are.



one of the 18s, i may not even use this, im not sure yet



random pic



glued the sides down

So the 10 dollar Big Lot clamps worked well? Were going to have to use those on the level 5 box.

[pimpedout97x]

[footlongsam]

[pimpedout97x]

test fit

this may give you a better idea how the sides will be, notice they are flowing the contours of the side panels



put the back on
