Hard time geting sub box in vehicle

[bass4thetruck]

Ive not built a S10 box recently but have built a vented box for a F150 single cab using a RE SR12. seat had to be moved forward a good bit for the sub to clear the seat. To me the seat position was sum what uncomfortable. Did his box go in with out the seat resting on the subs? A lot of guys will build a box throw it behind the seat at latch the seat where it is actually resting on the sub. Most of the time you can see the ring in the carpet when they lay the seat forward.

i havent seen it in person or in the truck but i have seen pics of the box and if the seat touches the subs when they arent playing do you think it will damage them when they play?

very well could. Won't be good for them that's for sure

Depending on how bad they touch, it could range from scuffs on surround to coil damage it they bottom out on seat backs.

Just as Ben said, depending on how much they touch it will eventually tear something up.

Even if you get it to fit that box is gonna be too small for those subs. You said in the other thread that it's just under 3ft^3 but by time you figure in woofer and port displacement you're going to be around or under 2ft^3. I would either go with 1 12 or better yet sell/trade those for 4 smaller 10's. I've built boxes for single cab s10's and every one that tried bigger subs ended up coming back and having me build a new box for more, smaller subs and got much better results.

im saving up for a amp now and am going to see how it sounds with one. but have you built boxes behind the seat of a regular cab s10 b4?

It's been a while but yes I've done quite a few in single cab s10's and other single cab small trucks. The last one I remember doing was a single cab Isuzu pup and he was set on running 2 older 12" RE SE's so I built his box and it didn't sound too bad. A few weeks later he came back and wanted it louder so he finally took my advise of going with more, smaller subs and bought 4 10" Memphis PR's (he wanted them because he liked how they sounded in my truck) and it was way louder. There wasn't enough room for the RE's so they were not being used to their full potential. With the 10's even though they were cheaper subs that took less power they were able to be used in a box much closer to what they needed and the end result was a much louder and better sounding system.
