I'm not even able to seal off at the top. My third amp will be mounted there =( Tell me...does this smell like chloroform to you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Juice0723 Posted February 28, 2011 Report Share Posted February 28, 2011 Do a blowthru be easier I would think. Then just use the accordion boot to make the seal and have a canopy or tonneau cover. Could easily secure that in the bed of the truck. But you probably use your bed if you actually use the truck how it should be used lol. One way to secure the wall is to use threaded rods. Put them straight into the metal of the truck.

C-Fizzy Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 All-thread straight to the frame, my friend. 6 runs of 1.5" all-thread, it would be the accident that killed you, your wall would still be in place. under construction I hate People with crappy primered cars rolling on hubcaps that are louder then me. u hate c-fizzy?

n8ball2013 Posted March 9, 2011 Report Share Posted March 9, 2011 You guys are acting as if building a wall is so completely different from building "regular" enclosures. of course you're going to have extra steps to stabilize and seal off but the box is a box. And OP,what do you mean not a regular cube? Lol this if you can build a box you can do a wall Do a blowthru be easier I would think. Then just use the accordion boot to make the seal and have a canopy or tonneau cover. Could easily secure that in the bed of the truck. But you probably use your bed if you actually use the truck how it should be used lol. One way to secure the wall is to use threaded rods. Put them straight into the metal of the truck. you must be joking? easier to cut up a hole and then try to get it perfectly sealed up? you know what happens with the smallest leak? You get to rebuild. I guess we can tell who's never attempted either.
