Do you have a specific question?  What kind of help are you looking for?

A cut sheet with sizes etc, assuming 1” mdf will be used.

 

Need port back sub up.  Will be going in back of an 05 Tahoe.

Unless you already have a pile of 1" MDF you want to use up, there is no good reason to use 1" MDF.  Zero. None.  

What are the max dimensions of your space?

Once i get off work I’ll measure to see.  Tons of room since I took out 3ird row seats.   

No mdf?  So we talking like 7 or 11 ply birch? 

 

Havent built a box since high school some odd 15 years ago lol.

You can use MDF if you want, though I would argue that a quality plywood has its benefits.  What I was mainly referring to is that you wanted to use 1" thick material.  A sheet of 1" MDF weighs about 120 lbs.  It absolutely sucks to work with.  All the extra weight isn't gaining you much either.  You would be much better off with 3/4" MDF and using the weight you saved vs 1" material to add bracing and doubling up on certain panels that would actually benefit from being two layers thick.

That makes a lot of sense, and thank you for all the information, I’m lacking in this department.  and 3/4 is a lot cheaper here.

Side note, the d3100 DID not fit in the front like i thought it would, so i just orderd a D3400 lol.
