September 18, 200717 yr It looks sweet and i love the touch of blue added in. Maybe make a round over covering to go on on the outside of the box similar to the one in hellboy or those kicker prefab boxes, if you know what im talking about.
September 18, 200717 yr Author looks real good how long did it take you to get the box already to go inThx guys. "Ga foo 88" I'm not 100% sure what you mean about the covering for the outside."AAfutureSTAR" From start to finish, it took about a day.
September 18, 200717 yr Nice work, if you were me I would have beefed it up with another layer in the baffle and added some more bracing as well.
September 18, 200717 yr Author Nice work, if you were me I would have beefed it up with another layer in the baffle and added some more bracing as well.Thx, it's got more bracing inside that I didn't get pix of. I just took the pix of that one since it also was holding the ports in place. Not to mention the 2nd baffle.
September 18, 200717 yr Sorry I was referring to a round over plate for the port, that would just screw onto the box externally and eliminate that sharp edge and look cool. Maybe you could do that in blue as well. If those are 6 in pvc ports, how much port area does that give you, around 56-57 sq inches? and also whats recomended for the rl-p 18?Also what the box height exactly?sorry for all the questions lol Edited September 18, 200717 yr by Ga foo 88

That can still be an option, lol. The box is 16"T-38"W-20"D. I have 56sq" of port area. Make @ SS recomends at least 50"-60" for the 18".
September 19, 200717 yr Author Good news, bad news. Good news is that I got the box in, and reworked my air managment. I still need to do some tuning with the amp, but it sounds great so far. Bad news is that I fonnd 2 cracks in my airtanks around the ports. So I can't drive thr truck anywhere to listen to the 18". Edited September 19, 200717 yr by oxsign
September 19, 200717 yr Author Hell ya it does, lol. I was really looking forward to taking a drive, and messing with the sub/amp.
