the design of the box is great. I don't think i could sacrifice what little room there is in a single cab though.

Oh yeah helps a lot with rattles, road noise, and it makes your speakers produce a lot more mid bass.

its way too close if you have the cupholders attached in the center of the 60/40 split then im about 2.5 inches between that and the middle storage tray in an auto

Steph3n1, do you mind shooting me the dimensions of your enclosure? I'm gonna start the build of my enclosure soon, and just wanted to compare what I was planning to what you have done; and I am also short, under 5'8" . Thanks!

Well heres a much needed update. I just tore my box out of the truck and am starting to re-build. Going to screw around with this T2000 12 for while longer just to see what all i can squeeze out of it.
Anyways, were going to try a big kerfed port and shrinking the box down this time. and since i have a bunch laying around 1/4'' angle iron in all the corners, Resin and glassed 45's and 1/2'' all thread for cross bracing. Im tired of box flex can you tell LOL.

I grabbed one more video of the old setup before i tool it all out

That is way to much loss of leg room!!! But sounds pretty good. Just not something I would ever do as country music doesn't need that much bass. lol
