i can find some pics of mine in a little bit.. they arent anything really cause the box wasnt meant for a ranger.. i just built some legs so it would sit flat in the back, then put an amp rack across the top of it.. when i redo my box sometime this spring ill have something to show...

wait for michael to show you his box.. it was built for his ranger so it turned out well.. he'll have pics im sure.. there's probably some others on the site too that have stuff that fit their cabs right now a little better than how mine is sitting.

EDIT: ok nothing above will really help you, i just misread and thought for some reason you said you had an extended cab, and not a single.. sorry about that man

So this was my set up in my old ranger. It since has been transfered to the blazer. But it wouldn't work in a reg cab. It is a 10" Jl W7 powered by a Jl 500.1

I know this is off topic, but I didn't think you could get a Reg. Cab Ranger with 4.0 in 2003, only year I knew of was 2001 but judging by your sig I must have been wrong?

I think ya'll got it covered. lol

Basically in a regular cab, you have to go wide and skinny. It's not optimal, but you do what you gotta do.

You can kinda see how I built the box on page 5 of my old cardomain page
http://www.cardomain.com/MEMBERPAGE/329486/5

Sadly I have no measurements to give for that box, as I just measured and built that box to fit every bit of room I could find. But if you want a milder size box, here's a lil blueprint I made up:
https://www.ranger-forums.com/forum2...achmentid=1006

One good place to start is by removing the tire jack, and put that into a tool box, or something. That frees up alot of room. The magic number for subwoofers is 6". No more than 6" top mount depth unless you want to really cramp the legroom. Sub diameter is really whatever you want to do, but 10 or 12" is the easiest.

Any more questions, just ask...
