    Now for the results, i put the speakers in and got it hooked up, turned it on, and the amp came on but the subs didnt. Well i called some of my friends but they didnt know anything. Well come to find out, i put a negative speaker wire in the postive slot. HA simple but stupid mistake. After that, i got them working and turned them up. They are loud. My problem is that my songs hit lower notes, but the songs that the higher notes pounded. The higher notes are way louder than with my other box.

    im not sure cccullen. I still have tuned the amp to the box yet. Im going to do that when i have more time and its not dark and cold outside. LOL Im sure once i do that, it will sound way better.

    I'm sure once you adjust the amp it will sound a whole lot better.

    I got it screwed to the wood floor, then the wood floor is bolted to the floor of the truck.

    that box will demolish screws...bolts would be much better

    Hell my 19Ov.2 snapped the heads off almost all of the drywall screws securing the sub.

    Well, after a little time of having the wall in my truck, i do not like it tuned high at all. So this week i will be redoing the port on it. I love low notes and i was thinking about tuning it around 33Hz. My question is, should i leave the port in the middle of the box or put it on the end with the subs at the other end? If yall have any more ideas, let me have them. I wont be redoing it until prolly monday. Thanks

    Well i tore my box apart tonite to redo it. Heres some pics of it tore apart. For the bracing, i am using 8 1.25" dowel rods ruuning from the front to the back. Will this be enough bracing?
    Heres the pics of the front tore back off
