Yep going to check today, the box has about a gal of fiberglass resin inside over all parts.from the put side the don't don't flex at all

Resin by itself (without fiberglass cloth) will make your box nice and sealed up but it adds almost no strength.

Do you have any pictures of the box?

if its bottoming around tuning, something is wrong. They should move least around there. Do you have torn suspention/spider??

EDIT - id also triple check your actually tuned at where you think you are...... give tricum your enclosure and port dims and let him do his magic. Maybe your tuned in the 40's or some silly shit. Good luck OP

Just took a look at the box in side and out. Played the sub hard as it could with out making the sounds. Nothing on the box is flexing at all. And everything inside is hard as a rock. Here are some pics of the box.

Just swapped the sub over to my FI box. It got a bit louder and now does not,bottom out as easy. But still does sometimes. Thinking for my power it needs to be in like 4 cuft. I free air the sub. And could get it to bottom out at like 1/8 of my bass knob
