Ship the sub separately.

that would be kinda of pricey :ehh: i would like to do it as economically as possible i was thinking about putting the sub in the enclosure and then making the box 2 inches bigger than the rest of the box and but little blocks of wood to space the box out so it won't hit the sub

It may be pricier to ship them separately, but that is your best bet for a safe delivery. Shipping the sub in its own box would allow the motor and basket to be supported. If it was mounted in an enclosure, the motor would not have any support other than being mounted to the basket. That could cause the basket to actually break because of the motors weight if it were to be banged around.
