12" Level 3 in Glove box Build


Recommended Posts

Thanks for all the positive replies guys, i wont let you down. i will some videos/put it on the term lab when im done. I am expecting a lot of dash rattle when this is complete but i will take a day or two and try to rid of them all somehow.

Cool to see you are actually getting this done for my show. :drink40: Once the RHS is in we can do the inside of that enclosure with it and stiffen it up real good.

Hey Claymond, i should definatly have it done by your show. what is this RHS poduct you are talking about?

as for keeping the glove box functional... here are my options. At the moment this box is right around 1.5 cubes, which of course is too large for the lvl 3 sealed. however if i were to keep the functionality of the glove box it would probably cut the volume down around 1 cube or so. However, i do not want to go sealed. option b is to go ported of course. 1.5 cubes is perfect for ported however in order to do so i only really have one option. i must run the port as such in the photo below. There is sufficient room behind the pole vent and 4" between the face of the flare and the box wall. It may look a little silly but this is about all i can do with what i have. But to answer your question, regardless what it will look like a stock glove box from the outside, its functionality is unknown yet.

As you can see it will vent directly our the stock speaker grill, which happens to be exactly 4" wide. of course the optimal situation would be to downfire the port on the same plane as the sub but unfortunately i do not believe it will work.

Ideas? Opinions?

i will start glassing the rest of this thing in the morning, will be updates tomorrow night

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

yea i had two goals for this build, first is to maintain my cab space and second is to keep everything as hidden as possible. I will be getting a grill of somesort, probably one of the alpine ones. or i might just build one myself out of some mesh material. whatever i use i want it too be very fine to keep all the mud and such out of there
