Advice on first wall.

Recommended Posts

Alright so I need some input here. Me and a buddy are walling his car with 3 DC XL 15's. it is a 2009 avenger. this will be my first wall build and I need same advice. how should I go about making the wall. I was thinking about making a strong ass shell first and then start worrying about the airspace, baffle, and port. I just feel like trying to design the whole thing and then build it is too much. idk. any advice at all is much appreciated.

Shell first is what I did, you can always shrink if its too big.

I'm getting ready to start my first wall in the next couple weeks hopefully and this is what I'm planning on doing. I was trying to figure out how much space I'll end up having but there's really know way to tell exactly especially with weird angles.

And like DB said, if you're left with too much space, you can always shrink which will only make it even stronger....

thanks for the input guys. I will for sure shell first and then go from there. I will make a log for it so I'm sure you will give me some more tips then. thanks.

the more you can make the wall apart of the car, the better.

In a sedan i would try and make the roof of the wall attached to the top of the car. Obviously this involves alot more work and can make thing less reversible one day.

Have to make shell first. You can always ball park things but you never know until its competed.

ya I want to make the top and sides as close to the roof and doors as possible. we want to make it somewhat reversible so idk about attaching the top of the box to the roof. we are doing a top port too so do you think we should do it like you had it? as in angle up like this /''''''\

its car dependent. I would avoid angles if possible because they absolutely suck. In sedans though angles are a must to gain enough space
