lol, sorry you never got to hear them..you would have fell in love

Good luck fitting anything behind the seat of those trucks unless you are willing to bring the seat forward a few notches.

JL has a stealthbox for those trucks, not the cheapest, but you may want to look into it.

just one suggestion..fiberglass box with some 8's

I have bucket seats man.... i measured and its 8in from where my seat is to the back of my truck.... Matt how much did you pay for your 8's and box??

Memphis ... i had the same issue and i sacrificed a lil room at first for my subs but i got smart and decided to build a better box... I have a Ram 1500 and i put 2 10" in a box that was built to Truck box specs online and then after that i decied to experiment by building a full width (Cab width) box for 2 12" with them mounted very close to eachother and separated in each champer. (The subs are dead center in the Truck... I had a bench/desk in my truck and i removed the dest recently and made my own console to house the amp... sounds good went to the shop im hitting 136.5 with them... So u can fit really what u want back there it just depends on how creative you can get. Also if u put the subs behind ur seats with little room for them to move u will block a good deal of sound so where ever there is free space is good... My first set up was nothing more than a glorified Back massager

if you have a console i would consider removing it and building a console box with a downfiring sub. then you could mount the amp behind the seat. you should easily be able to fit a 12" in a console box

Matt how much did you pay for your 8's and box??

I built the box so say...25-30 bucks, how ever much the wood cost. And the 8's was probably 200 total or a tad bit more. They each were like 50-60 new. I bought one used thos for 45 on this forum

i strongly recommend looking into pioneers shallow mount subs....they sound great, will take an assload of power and are now available in a 10 as well as a 12 and you can run them in .35 and .5 cubic ft.


plus theyre only 4" deep

I like the Pioneer Shallow mounts they are nice! I wish that they would consider working them into their premier line, seeing as that almost all their OLDER premier lines were amazing... Other than that yea def good subs, i think another line that has shallow mounts is JL? I think i might be wrong but u can run something along those lines in the truck... i still think u can run a set of 10's with no prob, i know that when i did it it wasnt soo bad.

Yeah JL has the Stealthbox system. My brother was thinking about getting it for his F 150 but I havent heard it.
