Need Box Designed.

[vonhanson]

Hey guys, i think i'm going to finally get around to upgrading my system and making a new box.

i have a design in mind, but its for sealed and not much airspace. so i need it larger and with a port if possible.

the sub/amp i'm going to use is still up in the air. i'm not sure if that matters to much atm, i'm not in a huge hurry.

i've been thinking about going with a AQ HDC3 10 or 12 sub.

here is the basic design

Now here is what i'd like to change.

The Red, i'd like to trim it a little more, then box can be taller/wider.

yellow isn't needed really, it just covers up a part if the interior.

blue part is an idea for the port? or the sub can be on the topside with port up or whatever you think would be best.

box will be built by my dad(he does woodworking) and me, and will probably get bedlined to not have to carpet, keep it kinda low key.

i'd also like the sub to sit down in the box, not rest on the top of it.

i can go measure inside the truck if that helps out more, just let me know if anyone is interested in this, and how much it would cost for a design.

i woul go with a 10 if your going vent it. Vented boxs need more room to be efficent. but get some dims and i can help ya a bit

dims for if i trim the interior peices? all of them for the old box are in the link, and i was thinking a 10, i have 2 10'' comp vr's right now, and if i go with a single AQ its gonna be way better in a good box. they are loud now, but i definitely need to upgrade.

dims of what ever you want the size of your box to be

[vonhanson]

mmk, if i have time tomorrow i'll figure out the max dims i can fit/want.

you need ALOT more space then you have there

[vonhanson]

i just don't want it to take up more than 1/2 of the back area, i need room for camping gear and what not, and for the AQ's 10 it says 1.2-1.5 ft^3 and just using RE calc, i can get 1.3 cuft without having it to massive, i just don't know how to do the tuning and port stuff, i'll look at it more tomorrow(or friday) depending how busy i am and see what the max dims i would like to use.

[Clif]

get some max dims and we will go from there. Remeber the bigger you can make it the better it will sound. (within reason)

[vonhanson]

Max i'm looking at right now would be, 14.5 high 14.5 wide 25 long, port up sub up? only thing i really want smaller would be the length.

the box sits into the side of the cab like 5-6 inches or so, so the sub has to be kinda in the middle so it clears the interior panel.

heres RE, like i said i dont know port/tuning stuffs but thats my max dims at 1.9 cuft

Bump, anyone here working on this at all?

heres a picture of my truck, i took off the topper for a bit.

Tires are 33x 12.5 x 15 with stock suspension.
