I've got a Kicker Solo baric L5 10" sub behind the passenger seat. You can easily get a smaller 10" or 12" behind the seat.

 

two 10" comp kickers in custom build boxes out of old particle board furniture that had lamination on the exterior

 

i had my 8 inch bazooka for a while it was great but i listen to punk and rock, very little bass sort of stuff but wanted a little extra. if your looking to let the neighbors know your coming home from 2 blocks away i wouldnt bother.

 

I fit two 8" fosgate subs without any problems. They hit pretty hard too.

8's are cute hahaha. but they sure as hell get the job done..i'd say one 8 or 10 sub with the proper rms and you'll be bangin...

 

i have long legs and gotta be able to put my seat all the way back tho

 

Do you lose your arm rest? Meaning, does it have to stay in the 'UP' position?

I like the 8' set up

 

Nope, my drivers seat has full movement. It touches the box corner a little, but not enough to stop you from moving it back. I now have grills on the subs so the cones don't vibrate on the seat. The armrest comes very close to the speakers, but I've never had issues with it.

I have a different amp now and as long as I keep the amp behind the passenger seat, my driver's seat can recline against the wall.

Nice, imma have to think about that.

 

what kind of music do you listen to?

another sub that you can consider is the Elemental Designs 7kV2 @ edesignaudio.com

it's a 6.5" small box sub (0.25-0.5 cu ft), so you can fit a wedge box behind your seat (towards the bottom), while the top of your seat reclines against the cab

the thing that works to your advantage is that you've got an '04...it has ghastly more space than the 89-92:

amp, and space for sub:

 

When I built my custom box I set my driver's seat back like I normally do and got behind the passenger's seat and took measurements. I wasn't able to keep the measurements exact because of the length of the sub, but I got it close enough the I didn't really notice a difference.

 

I run 2 10" lightning audio's in a custom box and still have plenty of room

 

Currently running 2 10inch dB-500s with no leg room loss to me but the passenger is another story.

 

Just finished, two ID 8s with a pioneer amp and no leg room loss. Plenty of boom for the truck.

 

dont go bazooka

bazooka=cheap=piece of crap

mobile electronics is an industry where your more money actually does buy the best
