Thanks man. I do need an alarm upgrade. Haha just hard to pay for stuff when you are my age. Gas in that thing has me broke. Anyways I don't show off, that's not me. I keep to myself and I try to get a long with everyone. Showing off though, I mean I don't rev it up and stuff but I do like to keep it clean and shiney

Okay well im 15 and this is what im gonna drive. I saved for a truck since i was 3 and when i turned 15 and saw this truck forsell.. well this is what i had to have. i knew i wanted a chevy and this is it (: im still 15 and drive this truck with my parents because i have my permit. Im worried that when i take it to school something is going to happen to it. I dont want anyone to mess with it. I try to be friends with everyone but there are always a few douche bags. Please, what do i do if someone does? and how do i prevent it.

is your truck extended cab or regular cab? i dont understand why you would go through all the trouble to fiberglass when you could just build a box that fits, and then secure it to your truck and with a port and if you make it big enough(depending on you tunning desires) youll make that lil mtx hit! My truck is an extend cab, under the back seat has lots of shapes.. I kinda want this box to be perfect. It will be tuned to 33 hz. You think the box will make a huge difference?? the box will definitely make a difference, but i still don't know why you would absolutely need to do any fiberglass work, other than maybe the internals of the box. boxes that go under the rear seats of a truck are usually shaped like the lower half of a capital H. A single 10 probably wouldn't even need that much airspace. i'd guess it'd be around 1 cube ported for the mtx. go ahead and take a picture of where you want to put the box and post it on here along with some measurements so we can work with it. Alright I'll post pics and measurements tomorrow

I need to measure still :/ haha

Yes, I love glassing

The bottom will be fiberglassed so it fits the floor perfect! And because under my seat is small so im utilizing air space.

I can fiberglass it's just Im not sure what he means and ive already asked him a billion and 1 questions haha

Okay New plan. the guy that was going to build it for me wrecked his fourwheeler at the dunes and can't do very much. He is drawing it up for me and im going to build it. It will be going under the back seat of my '95 chevy K1500 truck so im fiberglassing the bottom to get a good fit and use all the room i can. He said something in a text about building a frame and then stretching fleece to get the mold of my floor?? can someone please explain how you do this? If i understand it right you build the box sides and then stretch loose fleece across the bottom. lay it in and the fleece will form to the shapes under the back seat of the truck. Then u lay in the resin and glass?? if you could please explain that and then maybe link me to a thread where someone did that? I cant find anything on it.

Bump

One more thing! Until i can get this box built and all that should i take the sub out of the box.. and see how its wired and make sure its to the right ohms for my amp?? ( i didnt install this, it came in the truck)

Thanks so much man! ill get this haha i know i can do it. Just take me a little bit of time. So.. i guess say i wanted it tuned to 35hz how do i know how long the port will be?

Alright thanks man! I will take some measurments tomorrow when its light. My truck is well.. obviously a truck haha. I listen to rap and rock! Just depends on my mood. Haha i like the 50 cent, just a lil bit. HITS HARD.. well it would if my sub wouldnt bottom out haha. Cant hit the lows. Thanks for the info! One last thing, so does the box do the tuning or do u just build a box in general and then u tune it? (: thanks

Okay im 15 and i have a mtx thunder 4000 10" sub in my truck under the back seat of my truck is a small ish sealed box. The sub doesn't hit the lows very good and i want a change. I dont have the money for a new sub and all that stuff. The sub is hooked up to a 500 watt amp. I was supposed to have a ported box made by a buddy but he is always busy. I kinda want to do this myself. I'm really confused though on these things so if you could please answer these (: 1. The box will be going under the back seat again but will be much bigger. How do i figure up the volume of the box and how big i need to make it since the seat tapers a bit and gets lower towards the back. Higher in the front. If that makes since? 2. What do i need this box tuned to, i like bass, but i also love clarity and want it to sound clean?? How do i even go about doing this and the tuning stuff? do i just build a ported box in general with the right space for my sub and then its tuned after its built or does the box have to built a certain way to get the right Hz? 3. What is an ohm?? when someone says my sub is running at 1 ohm? what the hell does that mean? haha. I am really seriously trying to get this! All i do is read stuff on this site. 4. http://store.mtx.com/caraudio/archive/thunder4000.cfm Here is the link to the specs on my sub. I have the 10" like i said, But then it says 4 ohms, 8 ohms? etc. what do i have? what does all this mean? do i need to take into consideration the mounting depth and all of that? Thank you guys so much for taking the time to read this. I really am trying hard and i will get it eventually. SMD for LIFE

haha what did u think it was going to be??
