memphisBred Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 Use the available bolts to bolt the floor/base down and use angled brackets in a few areas. Use plenty of screws to secure the box to the floor, and maybe secure the base of your box to the false floor with bolts and screws. Id also try and get a brace or something to secure the box to the rear deck for added support.

BeatBox Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 i walled of my 98 2dr integra, on the front half and rear half we bolted some 2x4's to the car itself, then bolted the wall to that. im pretty sure i did a good job on it because when I DID flip my car the box didnt move and seems like it kept the room from crushing any more just make sure you DONT SCREW INTO THE GAS TANK! you can kinda see them here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cardboardcat15 Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 If you look at my build log, you can see exactly how I did mine. I used seat belt bolts to secure some supports that hold the false floor/bottom of my box. once you have a false floor, you can build on that. Just make sure you secure your box at a higher point to the rear deck or rear pillars. you can never be too safe. Quote My Channel on YouTube.

TeamHT Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 Beatbox did it similar to how I do my walls. 2x4s bolted to the car, bottom layer of MDF bolted to the 2x4s as the bottom layer of the wall.

EdgarG0721 Posted May 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 So I guess I gotta look over beatbox build cuz I was thinking if I flip over I don't want it to move at all an I was basically thinking attaching 2x4 and from there attach my based or the wall thanks alot for the input build log will start this weekend 4 dc 15s sundown for power couple xs batt and hopefully will be loud enough Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noobtastic14 Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 My box is bolted to the seatbelt bolts as well as a few spots I added. Also, it extends wider than the B pillar and is "wedged" against it. If I am ever in a situation where the B pillars are widened, I'm long gone anyways. -Drew Quote I am a United States Military Arts and Crafts Professional.

EdgarG0721 Posted May 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 (edited) Imma wall at the b pillar. So if i seal it of completely should I put second skin On the roof or from b pillar to windshield only. The reason why i ask is cuz I dont wanna do only one Half and need to do the rest later. And I don't wanna waste material if I won't need to Edited May 25, 2012 by EdgarG0721 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
