Port forward instead of toward tailgate?


Recommended Posts

Port forward non wall may cancel out frequencies. If you do not want to fire towards the rear then port up. not sure if you absolutely want to port forward, but i have a buddy that fires forward in a burban and i don't like the way it sounds. still loud but the bass is just, different lol. port up for best alternative. but with 4 18s I'm sure flex will be a bishh to control porting up.

But What Do I Know?

As of right now the truck is getting 1/8" plate steel welded to the roof and floors to solidify them. The tailgate catches fucking hell. Its not just a rattle. The hinges have wallowed out on both the gate and the glass. The tailgate handle is no longer a thing nor is the hardware inside the gate. I thought about a loading wall to take the force off of the actual tailgate itself. Other than that I thought about welding in Rod Stops that will allow the gate to close and latch but give it 1/64th of an inch of travel at the most. Basically making the tailgate rock solid when closed. I can assure you no amount of weatherstripping will help this thing. Lol and if I build a loading wall it will only be as tall as the box. The whole point in not building a wall is still being able to see out the back. When you build a loading wall 2x as high as the box, you might as well wall it off.

Yeah it sucks not being able to see out the back of a big truck. Do like the Russians and fill your doors with eurathane resin. You need a latch like the Lincolns and Cadillacs where you latch it and then a motor pulls the striker back to make it tight.
