Here is my setup. Im going to change to a single 12 behind the passenger seat as I need my seat to go all the way back and recline (who cares about the passenger). No to mention the bigger the box, the more you're gonna start cutting into your gas mileage. I saw a drop of about 10 miles per tank once I installed this box, it's like carrying around another person in the back seats.

It seems its really hard to build a custom enclosure for a system especially in a supercab.

I really dislike the fact that you have to build around that hump in the back end of the cab though.

if it really bothered you, you could cut the hump out and weld in a new sheet of sheet metal to flaten it out, or like what im gunna do...make a platform that will leval the back area out and now you have storage underneath for either the bottle jacks or amps

Heres my simple setup. Sounds good but I might go with a harder hitting 10 later.

How are you going to do a smaller version? I couldn't think of many ways to make my setup any smaller than it is... but I do have a sub, two amps, and a carputer to house, and you might not have all that.

Well this post has been dead for some time seeing how many pages I had to go back and find it but this is the set up I have in my truck. It's two 10" Audiobahns in a ported box being pushed by an Audiobahn amplifier with 800 Watts RMS. Picture is old, none of the wires are visible any more, looks cleaner.
