1992Chevy K1500 Posted August 1, 2009 Report Posted August 1, 2009 (edited) I was wondering if it would be possible to put a ported box in my standard cab pickup without doing a blowthrough. I already did all the measurements and drew it up on paint. This is a side view of what they box would look like: And this is a top view of what the box would look like: I know, they look funny (I'm crazy, I know ) What do ya'll think? EDIT: All dimension are outside dimensions and I will use either 3/4" MDF or .75" MDF.

Blue Posted August 1, 2009 Report Posted August 1, 2009 EDIT: All dimension are outside dimensions and I will use either 3/4" MDF or .75" MDF. first off, they are the same thing 3/4"=.75" And that box is funky looking. What are you planning on putting in it? And how are you planning on porting it, slot or areo? Quote formerly known as Blue86f150 its a 4th order just because its tuned in the 40z doesnt mean it wont reach down and jiggle your balls at sub 30 hz frequencies. Regardless if they were dipped platinum and were stuffed in Beyonce's twat.....way too fucking exspensive this sux camel dicks
1992Chevy K1500 Posted August 1, 2009 Author Report Posted August 1, 2009 first off, they are the same thing 3/4"=.75"And that box is funky looking. What are you planning on putting in it? And how are you planning on porting it, slot or areo? The MDF thing was a joke. (Perhaps it was too subtle) I know it is funky looking (I kinda laughed at it myself at first). On a more serious note, I don't know. This would be my first ported box so I have no idea about ports.

Basshead08 Posted August 1, 2009 Report Posted August 1, 2009 Getting ready to start on a similar design this week. lol Of course you can port it. Quote System tear out has begun...Out with the old i have a iq of 128 i graduated at the top of my class tell me how im reatrded you are the 1 thats dumb as hell you can't even spell Look at the underlined text hahahahahahahaha I think of it as the virgin losing the virginity technique not just jumping in to it, and pounding away, but going at it slowly over time, to get to that full extreme
1992Chevy K1500 Posted August 1, 2009 Author Report Posted August 1, 2009 (edited) I forgot two dimensions. Give my a second. EDIT: HERE'S THE UPDATED DIMENSIONS: According to my best calculations, I would have about 3.7 cubic feet minimum. However I plan on using fiberglass on the bottom, so I may be able to get 4 cubic feet. Is that enough for two 12"s? Getting ready to start on a similar design this week. lol Of course you can port it. I just edited it. Do you think 4 cubes is enough?

Blue Posted August 2, 2009 Report Posted August 2, 2009 (edited) Ok, can you do this for me, go back out to your truck and get the width of the box, the height of the box, the bottom depth, and the top depth at you height mark. From what i am seeing is that you are pretty much going to be building a box that is 50" high. If you can get the the deminsions i described, then i, or someone else can design something for you. P.s. Are you planning on running the pyles or a different type of woofer? Edit: This is what I am talking about Edited August 2, 2009 by blue86f150 Quote formerly known as Blue86f150 its a 4th order just because its tuned in the 40z doesnt mean it wont reach down and jiggle your balls at sub 30 hz frequencies.

1992Chevy K1500 Posted August 2, 2009 Author Report Posted August 2, 2009 (edited) It's not 50" high. It's 50" from front to back. It's gonna be 7" high in the front and 14.5 in the middle. The very back is gonna be 18" high. The back will go behind the seats and will be 62" wide and the front and middle will be 13" wide. The side view is from the drivers seat. I hope that makes sense. I'll edit the top view pic for ya. Ok, heres a modified top view: Keep in mind, the pictures are not to scale. I will run the Pyle's for now, but I plan on upgrading when I get the money.

Blue Posted August 2, 2009 Report Posted August 2, 2009 Ok, now it is making sence. didnt know that you were thinking of doing a center consoul enclosure. Also, i thought you had bench seat, cause most regular cabs of that era have bench. With something like that you have a lot of different options avaliable. You should have no problem getting 5 cubes plus, with an slot port with the opening on the top towards the back of the cab Quote formerly known as Blue86f150 its a 4th order just because its tuned in the 40z doesnt mean it wont reach down and jiggle your balls at sub 30 hz frequencies.

1992Chevy K1500 Posted August 2, 2009 Author Report Posted August 2, 2009 Mine's a 60/40 split bench seat. I took a drivers seat from the same year model truck and used some spray-on fabric die (sp?) to get matching seats. I could get 5 cubes if I wanted, but I plan on having a custom built switch panel and some other stuff that I need within reach, so the most I can get would be around 4 cubes. Do you know a good port calculator that a novice could understand? Like I said, this would be my first ported box.

siucsaluki11 Posted August 2, 2009 Report Posted August 2, 2009 External ports i take it? could run a few aero ports firing upward behind your seats.
