Amart88 Posted June 26, 2013 Report Posted June 26, 2013 is the only reason you guys dont like t nuts the fact that they need to go in perfect? That and if the nut comes loose on the back have fun drilling the bolt out. I mean, When you go do put a screw in what do you naturally do? You apply slight pressure to the fastener which half of thee time pops the damn thing off inside the box. After my experience I would not use them myself.

Chris Hammer Posted June 26, 2013 Report Posted June 26, 2013 What about some type of strap, doa loop to two sub holes so you can actually pull up on the top of the face and pull them out easily(easier then no straps). I mean some clean nylon webbing type strap, maybe hide in gasket or something? Just a thought, we use them on our motocross bikes to make grabbing and lifting easier. More i think about it, idk how you would attach to the basket... MY BUILD *****http://tinyurl.com/gmcbuild***** Vehicles 2005 GMC Canyon CB1000r - Currently where any future funds are going.

Chris Hammer Posted June 26, 2013 Report Posted June 26, 2013 Could you epoxy the t nut in?? never used them so dont have any experience but would that work to keep it from popping out with pressure?

Trey_Dog650 Posted June 26, 2013 Report Posted June 26, 2013 My issue is more with lining up with them... I've had it where 1 or 2 where just barely off and couldn't use them.

You could but if you get any on the threads then your probably back to square one. And that don;t solve the misalignment issues. I know it's user error but without a floating drill press it's not easy getting them perfect. My 2005 s10 blazer build. 4 zcon 18's walled.
tacomaguy1 Posted June 26, 2013 Report Posted June 26, 2013 I've seen them come out when they were glued in Team Flex Issues
CleanSierra Posted June 26, 2013 Report Posted June 26, 2013 My bitch about T nuts is spinning them on the back side of the baffle. It's NOT fun holding a woofer, especially one as heavy as an SP4 up while trying to get a screw lined up. That's a LOT of weight and a very good chance to puncture a surround. I had a pair of subs using T nuts and I spun ONE nut, and it ruined my day. I twisted the basket pulling on the sub, got pissed, dropped the sub, the motor shifted, I then THREW THE SUB 15ft-ish and finished the job. It all started over a little T-nut... Im not the one you want to try to troll. Just a fyi for you.
sprkn_ranger Posted June 26, 2013 Report Posted June 26, 2013 I had a t-nut spin on me when pulling a sub out. It was epoxied too. Ended up rocking the sub back and forth until the mdf broke and let go of the sub. Not fun at all.
