MrEwubbsZ Posted August 23, 2012 Report Posted August 23, 2012 So ive been reading for awhile now and im about to start a build but im still not completely sure how i should build the box I dont mean the size of the box or tuning i mean actually build the box. what should i use to put it all together? wood glue screws 1 1/2 inch doles what im not sure about is what everyone uses in the cracks. It seems like liquid nails is what alot use but i dont know if that is the best thing. Then i see some guys coat the inside of the box with resin. Should i do this? Anything to get it more strength? I just need some tips to make sure i dont screw this box up. 2000 Ranger Build Log
tacomaguy1 Posted August 23, 2012 Report Posted August 23, 2012 Make good accurate cuts and all you need is wood glue and screws Resin is a waste of time to me..for a daily system which it sounds like this is If you have some small gaps just use silicone to seal it.up Team Flex Issues
412 CVX Posted August 23, 2012 Report Posted August 23, 2012 Accurate cuts and pilot holes. Just say no to Ground Pounder Customs.

MrEwubbsZ Posted August 23, 2012 Author Report Posted August 23, 2012 Alright so that all sounds about right? How should i do the baffle? Should i glue it first then Screw everything together? I dont want it to split apart and im not sure if it will do that. and i should glue it together then screw it before the glue drys? 2000 Ranger Build Log
MrEwubbsZ Posted August 23, 2012 Author Report Posted August 23, 2012 yeah i was going to use a center drill and spot face the holes first. 2000 Ranger Build Log

tacomaguy1 Posted August 23, 2012 Report Posted August 23, 2012 The screws just hold it together till the glue dries. So yes, put them in when the glue is wet Team Flex Issues
412 CVX Posted August 23, 2012 Report Posted August 23, 2012 also, don't use too many screws. Glue gives you strength. give about 5-6 inches between screws. Just say no to Ground Pounder Customs.
