This is the 1st box that i built for my truck. Didn't really have a set plan on how I ws gonna build it but I knew that I wasn't gonna pay for a box again.

It only took 2 days to build being that I had to wait for my baffles glue to dry. After that the build went by fast. I triple stack my 3/4 MDF after i made the cut-out for the sub then glued the pieces together. I wanted my sub to sit flush with the baffle for a much cleaner look. To avoid the sub pounding itself loose I used anchor bolts to hold it down. I'm not too technical on all the tuning lingo (still learning), so I cant give you that info at this time.

The last photo shows the box in the back of my truck & it's sitting on a pile of scrap MDF because some asshole smack the back of my truck on the way home from work. So now I have to ride around with a smashed truck because they didnt have insurance (lawsuit).

looks pretty good from what I can see in the small pics :good:

there is some VERY hard headed people out there. Anyone who says a DD-1 isnt necessary is also saying an O-scope isnt necessary. Anyone who says an O-scope IN THE MINIMUM isnt necessary, is a noob. Forget the DD-1 for a minute, any reputable installer will at LEAST use an O-scope. Those guys in that thread are clowns. Hard headed clowns.
